(P = 0.008) and magnesium (P = 0.043) compared to controls. This study confirms a high association of endometriosis and gastrointestinal disorders accompanied by an altered nutrient intake. A dietary intervention by a professional nutrition…
Endometriosis is one of the most common benign gynecological diseases. The extremely heterogeneous complex of symptoms complicates the diagnosis and treatment of this disease. In most patients, there is a latency period of several years bet…
It is known that endometriosis is associated with an increased risk for certain forms of ovarian cancer. However it is unknown, which kind of endometriosis is associated with ovarian cancer and furthermore, if endometriosis is associated wi…
Hintergrund und Ziele: Bei vielen Erkrankungen kann ein relativ heterogenes Patientenkollektiv in verschiedene Untergruppen unterteilt werden. Für die Endometriose, obwohl eine der häufigsten Erkrankungen der Frau im fertilen Alter, ist ein…
Sowohl für das Ovarialkarzinom als auch für Endometriose sind genetische Varianten als Risikofaktoren validiert. Endometriose ist als Risikofaktor für das klarzellige, das endometrioide und das low grade seröse Ovarialkarzinom beschrieben. …
Several genetic variants have been validated as risk factors for endometriosis, endometrial and ovarian cancer. Endometriosis has also been described as a risk factor for endometrial and ovarian cancer. The aim of the present study was to t…
PurposeTo analyze major and minor complications following surgery for deeply infiltrating endometriosis including long-term impairment of intestinal, bladder, and sexual function.MethodsPatients who had undergone resection for deeply infilt…
Symptome und Ausprägung einer Endometrioseerkrankung können vielschichtig sein. Therapeutisch steht die operative Resektion der Endometrioseläsionen im Vordergrund. Prä- und postoperativ ist eine medikamentöse Therapie zu diskutieren, in in…

PurposeThe aim of the present study was to analyze major and minor complications-including long-term impairment of intestinal, bladder, and sexual function-following surgery for deeply infiltrating endometriosis using anterior rectal resect…
BackgroundIn vitro and observational epidemiological studies suggest that vitamin D may play a role in cancer prevention. However, the relationship between vitamin D and ovarian cancer is uncertain, with observational studies generating con…

Kernaussagen Zur Behandlung der Endometriose stehen verschiedene Maßnahmen zur Verfügung wie die endokrine, die analgetische und die operative Therapie einzeln oder in Kombination. Die individuelle Situation der Patientin gilt es immer zu b…
Zielsetzung: Erfassung der prä- und postoperativen Sexualfunktion bei Patientinnen mit tiefinfiltrierender Endometriose (TIE) mit und ohne Darmbeteiligung.
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a heterogeneous disease characterized by a range of different presentations. It is usually diagnosed when patients present with pain and/or infertility, but it has also been diagnosed in asymptomatic patients.…
Background: No screening programs are available for ovarian or endometrial cancer. One reason for this is the low incidence of the conditions, resulting in low positive predictive values for tests, which are not very specific. One way of ad…
Endometriosis is a chronic disease of women in the reproductive age, defined as endometrial cells growing outside of the uterine cavity and associated with relapses. Relapses are hypothesized to correlate with incomplete surgical excision o…
Epidemiological studies have demonstrated associations between endometriosis and certain histotypes of ovarian cancer, including clear cell, low-grade serous and endometrioid carcinomas. We aimed to determine whether the observed associatio…

Ein Workshop zu Operationstechniken bei Patientinnen mit Endometriose fand am 29. 11. 2014 in Berlin statt. Im Folgenden geben Renner et al. einen Überblick über den Workshop.
Background: In the pathogenesis of endometriosis adhesions play a major role. Applying adhesion barrier on the peritoneal wound that might act as a seeding ground could also prevent endometrial cells to adhere, invade and grow and thus caus…
CONTEXT: In the last two decades, a color based concept of disease activity in peritoneal endometriosis has been in use in the clinical context, with red lesions being considered active and black or white lesions being interpreted as less a…
Hintergrund: Endometrioseherde können an multiplen Lokalisationen auftreten. Peritoneale, ovarielle und tiefinfiltrierende Läsionen kommen vor. Operationsindikationen können Schmerzen, eine Sterilität oder beides sein. Die Frage, ob die Lok…
