Background: The validation of laser usage during laparoscopic procedures, notably by Camran Nezhat in the late 1980s, has been significant. Lasers offer precision and depth control in tissue vaporization without bleeding. Surgical intervent…

OBJECTIVE: To describe a combined robotic and transanal technique used to treat ultralow rectal endometriosis in a 36-year-old patient with multiple pelvic compartments, which was responsible for infertility, dyspareunia, left sciatic pain,…

Background: Adenomyosis and congenital uterine anomalies (CUAs) can compromise reproductive potential and may coexist in the same patient, especially in cases of infertility. This review (CRD42022382850) aims to evaluate the published cases…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis affects women of reproductive age, and its pathogenesis is still unclear. Typically, it overlaps other similar medical and surgical conditions, determining a delay in early diagnosis. Metabolomics allows studying m…

The evaluation of endometriosis in an adolescent girl is a challenging topic. The initial stage of the disease and the limited diagnostic instrument appropriate for the youth age and for its typical features can reduce the ability of the gy…

Introduction: Endometriosis is a very common disease that affects up to 10% of the female population. Although medical therapy represents the first-line treatment for endometriosis, it does not always manage to control symptoms. Laparoscopy…

Ovarian endometriomas have a negative impact on a patient's reproductive potential and are likely to cause a reduction in ovarian reserve. The most commonly employed ovarian reserve parameters are anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and antral fol…

Ovarian endometriomas have a negative impact on a patient’s reproductive potential and likely cause a reduction in ovarian reserve. The most commonly employed ovarian reserve parameters are anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) and antral follicular…

PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to assess the length of diagnostic delay of symptomatic endometriosis in Italy and analyse the presence of correlations between the socio-demographic status of patients and the clinical characteristics/type…

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this systematic review is to summarize the data obtained from randomized controlled trials looking at new pharmacologic treatments for endometriosis published over the last decade with a focus on hormonal therapeutic o…

In women with deep endometriosis, the spontaneous fertility rate might range from 2 to 10%. The optimal management of these women is still an area of debate. Therefore, this review aims to explore the literature on the impact of deep endome…

Women with endometriosis are at risk of compromised ovarian reserve because of the pathogenesis of their disease but also due to the iatrogenic negative contribution of a surgical treatment. Fertility preservation in women with endometriosi…

Objective: The aim of this systematic review is to recap the data obtained from randomized controlled trials looking at new pharmacologic treatments for endometriosis published over the last decade with a focus on non-hormonal therapeutic o…

Endometriosis is a common gynaecological disease, causing symptoms such as pelvic pain and infertility. Accurate diagnosis and assessment are often challenging. Transvaginal ultrasound (TVS), along with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), are…

Uterine fibroids (leiomyomas or myomas) are the most frequent benign tumors in women. Heavy menstrual bleeding with resultant anemia, dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, infertility, urinary symptoms and constipation are generally associated…

Background \nThe aim of the study was to evaluate the impact on ovarian reserve by dosing the anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) using the stripping technique followed by the hemostasis with dual wavelengths laser system (DWLS) \nMethods \nWe enr…

PURPOSE: To evaluate whether laparoscopic treatment with a diode laser is feasible, safe, and effective in symptomatic patients affected by deep endometriosis (DE). METHODS: This retrospective study was performed using medical record data. …

Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is the most aggressive of the three phenotypes that constitute endometriosis. It can affect the whole pelvis, subverting the anatomy and functionality of vital organs, with an important negative impact …

Abstract Endometriosis impairs the quality of life (QoL) of many women, including their social relationships, daily activity, productivity at work, and family planning. The aim of this review was to determine the instruments used to examine…

INTRODUCTION: There is an urgent necessity to explore the complex pathophysiological nature of endometriosis, which may enable the rationale for new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies to be discovered. This systematic review aimed to cla…
