by endometriosis. In order to determine whether the extent of the decrease in AMH associated with endometriosis parallels the magnitude of the reduced responsiveness to COH previously reported, we will present COH and IVF/ ICSI outcomes in …
Estimates of endometriosis recurrence after primary surgery are around 10% per annum during the first postoperative quinquennium. The aim of this study was to define the effect of reoperation in women seeking conception. A MEDLINE and PubMe…
OBJECTIVE: To assess the use and effectiveness of IVF in a cohort of women undergoing surgery for endometriosis. DESIGN: Cohort study. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): Four hundred thirty-eight patients who attempted to become p…
Endometriosis-associated pain represents a challenge for both the patient and the health care provider since it is often difficult to design treatment strategies resulting in improvement of the symptoms. The association between endometriosi…
The authors evaluated the risk of developing a pelvic abscess in a series of 214 in vitro fertilization cycles that were performed in women with endometriomas. This complication was never recorded, indicating that its risk is very low (0.0;…
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that responds to steroidal manipulation. Creation of a steady hormonal environment with inhibition of ovulation temporarily suppresses the ectopic implants and reduces the inflammatory status …
BACKGROUND: The influence of previous conservative surgery for endometriomas on IVF-ICSI outcome is debated. Conflicting information emerging from the literature may be consequent to the fact that endometriomas are mostly monolateral. The c…
The classic, unproven dogma that ovarian endometrioma should be removed in all infertile women prior to IVF has been recently questioned. There is currently insufficient data to clarify whether the endometrioma-related damage to ovarian res…
Endometriosis is a common and enigmatic disease causing pelvic pain and infertility. Current treatment is mainly based on the use of surgery and ovarian suppressive agents. There is in particular the need for new therapeutic options able to…
Laparoscopic treatment for endometriosis-associated infertility is gaining widespread popularity supported mostly by uncontrolled studies, but the purported benefit of surgery may be overvalued. We have therefore analysed the best available…
A 25-year-old woman with unoperated deep endometriosis of the uterosacral ligament suddenly experienced severe abdominal pain, hematuria, hemoperitoneum, and intrauterine death at 31 weeks' gestation. Surgical intervention revealed active h…
BACKGROUND: If the menstrual reflux or implantation theory of endometriosis is true, refluxed endometrial cells could reach the right hypochondrium transported by the clockwise peritoneal fluid current and would implant more easily on the r…
OBJECTIVE: It has been hypothesized that bladder endometriotic nodules are an independent form of endometriosis that should be considered a distinct clinical entity. If this is true, the frequency of nonvesical endometriotic lesions in affe…
Endometriosis is a multifactorial disease that affects 6–10% of women of reproductive age. Epidemiological studies indicate that it is a polygenic disorder, with recurrence risks in first-degree relatives of approximately 2–9%. Thus, the cu…
Family and twin studies have shown that heritability accounts for endometriosis development to an extent similar to other complex genetic diseases. Both linkage analysis and association studies have been performed to identify genetic determ…
Endometriosis-associated symptomatology can be safely and effectively treated with intrauterine-released progestin, which is associated with fewer adverse effects than other therapeutic options and may be used on a long-term basis. We have …
BACKGROUND: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent stimulus of angiogenesis potentially contributing to the pathogenesis of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential association between the single …
