Women with endometriosis may have a defective immune system. However, evidence of the immune responses of endometriosis patients with a history of endometriosis surgery is lacking, and the association between the location of endometriosis l…

To the Editor: Chronic endometritis (CE) is a subtle type of inflammation characterized by the persistent presence of plasma cells in the stroma of the endometrium and is usually asymptomatic, only slight symptoms, such as abnormal uterine …

Endometriosis is a benign disease that shares some malignant features. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1) plays an important role in various cance…

Endometriosis (EMS) is an estrogen-dependent disease in which the glands and stroma of the endometrium grow outside the uterus and is a common cause of pelvic pain and infertility. Pathogenesis of EMS has not yet been fully understood, and …

Endometriosis is a condition characterized by the presence of endometrial tissues outside the uterus. Endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) are known to undergo regeneration and are linked to the causation of endometriosis. Activation of strom…

Objective: This study is to investigate the application of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in assessment of High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) in treating endometrioma. Methods: Totally 60 patients with endometrioma were included in thi…

BACKGROUND: Single port laparoscopic surgery (SPLS) is an innovative approach that is rapidly gaining recognition worldwide. The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility and safety of SPLS compared to conventional laparoscopic sur…

BACKGROUND: Enzyme matrix metalloproteinase-9 is a member of the matrix metalloproteinase family, which is critical to normal tissue remodelling during embryogenesis and wound healing. In patients with endometriosis, increased expression an…

Endometrial implantation is the major cause of endometriosis (EMS). Matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs) can degrade multiple extracellular matrix and has been postulated to be related with EMC occurrence. This study thus investigated serum and …

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of leuprolide acetate in the treatment of endometriosis. METHODS: From Nov. 2007 to Oct. 2012, the patients who confirmed to be endometriosis were randomly divided into test group of 113 c…

OBJECTIVE: This study measured the human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) and CA125 levels in Chinese women with benign gynecological disorders. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Sera were obtained from Chinese women prior to surgery for a pelvic mass and HE…

Endometriosis is a complex and enigmatic disease that arises from the interplay among multiple genetic and environmental factors. The defining feature of endometriosis is the deposition and growth of endometrial tissues at sites outside of …

Objective To analyze the effect of laparoscopic excision on deep infiltrating type endometriosis(DIE) in posterior pelvis.Methods Data of 35 cases of posterior pelvic DIE admitted to General Hospital of PLA from Jan.2006 to Jan.2009 were re…
