PROBLEM: We investigated the association of COX -2 gene-765G/C polymorphism and risk of advanced-stage endometriosis in Korean women. METHOD OF STUDY: This study consisted of 268 women with advanced-stage endometriosis and 242 control women…
Endometriosis is usually found in pelvic cavity such as in ovary. But, endometriosis has been described in other organs, although rare, such as intestine, kidney, lung, liver, gall bladder, and pancreas. Catamenial pneumothorax is defined a…
BACKGROUND: Recently, proteomic technologies have demonstrated that several proteins are differently expressed in various body fluids of patients with endometriosis compared with those without this condition. The aim of this study was to in…

Because energy production involves oxidative phosphorylation, mitochondria are major sources of reactive oxygen species in the cell. Recent findings indicate that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variants may play a role in the etiology of certain…
The levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) is effective in the treatment of dysmenorrhea associated with adenomyosis. However, the mechanism of pain relief of LNG-IUS in patients with adenomyosis is unclear. We aimed to inve…
BACKGROUND: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-activated gene-1 (NAG-1) is involved in cellular processes such as inflammation, apoptosis and tumorigenesis. However, little is known about the expression and function of NAG-1 in th…
Introduction: Endometriosis, defined as the growth of endometrial tissue outside \nthe uterine cavity is a common gynaecological disorder affecting 10-15% \nof women in their reproductive years. It is a major clinical problem causing in- \n…
BACKGROUND: Oxidative stress is considered to be involved in the establishment and development of endometriosis. Thioredoxin (TRX) is an endogenous redox regulator that protects cells against oxidative stress, and TRX-binding protein-2 (TBP…

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the level and pattern of cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) expression in endometriosis and to investigate the correlation between the expression of Cox-2 and several clinicosurgical parameter…
PROBLEM: The aim of this study was to evaluate osteopontin (OPN) mRNA expression in eutopic endometrium and plasma OPN levels in patients with endometriosis. METHOD OF STUDY: A total of 79 patients with histologically confirmed endometriosi…
Objective: This study was designed to compare the effects of laparoscopic total hysterectomy and laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy on female sexual quality. Methods: A Prospective observational study over 6 months was performed. Ninet…
