Umbilical endometriosis which was first described by Villar in 1886 is a rare clinical entity with a frequency of only 0.5-1%. The overall prevalence rate of endometriosis among women in their reproductive age is put at 5-10%. This is a des…

PURPOSE: To compare the location and sizes of deep endometriosis (DE) lesions evaluated by preoperative transvaginal sonography (TVS) in different #Enzian compartments with intraoperatively assessed DE location and size. MATERIALS AND METHO…

STUDY QUESTION: How is endometriosis extent described by the #Enzian classification compared to the revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine (rASRM) stages in women undergoing radical surgery for deep endometriosis (DE)? SUMMARY A…

Background Patients suffering from colorectal deep endometriosis (DE) experience gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms with almost the same frequency as gynaecological pain symptoms. Preoperatively existing GI symptoms may translate into pathologi…

Abstract Endometriosis is a common gynecologic condition typically treated via laparoscopic surgery. Its visual versatility makes it hard to identify for non-specialized physicians and challenging to classify or localize via computer-aided …

Introduccin. La asociacin entre endometriosis e infertilidad est claramente definida en la literatura, establecer la relacin fisiopatolgicas entre estas enfermedades dado el impacto que generan en la calidad de vida es un tema de inters en …

Gynecological ultrasonography plays a central role in the management of endometriosis. The rapid technical development as well as the currently increasing evidence for non-invasive diagnostic methods require an updated compilation of recomm…

Without an animal model and a non-invasive diagnosis, the pathophysiology of endometriosis is unclear and information is limited to symptomatic women. Lesions are biochemically variable. Medical therapy cannot be blinded and extensive surge…

Abstract Introduction Surgical experience and hospital procedure volumes have been associated with the risk of severe complications in expert centers for endometriosis in France. However, little is known about other certified units in Centr…

Background: Without an adequate animal model permitting experiments the pathophysiology of endometriosis remains unclear and without a non-invasive diagnosis, information is limited to symptomatic women. Lesions are macroscopically and bioc…

Endometriosis of the urinary tract (UTE) is rare, but has great impact on the patient. An infestation of the urinary bladder has typical symptoms and can be diagnosed relatively well and reliably. Depending on the size and location of the l…

ABSTRACT Objective To compare the preoperative detection of endometriosis using transvaginal sonography (TVS) supplemented by transabdominal sonography (TAS) with surgical assessment of disease, using the #Enzian classification for endometr…

This cumulative dataset includes two versions of GLENDA (Gynecologic Laparoscopy ENdometriosis DAtaset). Following list gives a brief description of all contained classes (both versions). Peritoneum: As one of the most frequently diagnosed …

Abstract Study question Is there a classification for a complete mapping of endometriosis, including anatomical location, size of the lesions, and degree of involvement that can be used with both, diagnostics and surgery? Summary answer #En…

Endometriosis is a common women's condition exhibiting a manifold visual appearance in various body-internal locations. Having such properties makes its identification very difficult and error-prone, at least for laymen and non-specialized …

The usefulness of a test is determined by the clinical interpretation of its sensitivity and specificity. The pitfalls of a test with a surgical endpoint are described in this article, taking the diagnosis of deep endometriosis by imaging a…

Background and Objective: The indication and techniques of endometriosis surgery changed rapidly over the last 40 years since better understanding the disease and an improved diagnosis. This review will therefore include a short discussion …
