Symptomatic women with stage III to IV endometriosis today are most often managed by conservative laparoscopic surgery, but recurrences continue to occur. Roughly one in five patients will have further disease within 5 years after complete …
It has been recently reported that serum concentrations of the adipocyte-derived hormone leptin are increased in patients affected by endometriosis. On the basis of these findings, the present study was undertaken to evaluate whether the pr…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the hypothesis that soluble intercellular adhesions molecule-1 (sICAM-1) may be used as a new serum marker of endometriosis. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING: An academic department specializing in gynec…
Follicular fluid from women with endometriosis has been shown to induce a higher endometrial cell proliferation than that derived from women without the disease. To elucidate this issue further, the aims of the present study were to compare…
