OBJECTIVE: In endometrial carcinoma patients, sentinel lymph node bilateral mapping fails in 20-25% of cases, with several factors affecting the likelihood of detection. However, pooled data about predictive factors of failure are lacking. …
Uterine fibroids have an impact on women's lives due to their high prevalence, physical symptoms, their consequences on patients' emotional and psychological well-being and loss of work productivity. The choice of therapeutical approaches v…
OBJECTIVE: Surgical management of bowel endometriosis is still controversial. Recently, many authors have pointed out the potential benefits of preserving the superior rectal artery, thus ensuring better perfusion of the anastomosis. The ai…
INTRODUCTION: In this paper, we report general pharmacological profile and major biological activities of natural progesterone (P) and progestins. The aim of this article consists of synthesizing the principal aspects of pharmacology and me…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the functional outcomes of nerve-sparing surgery for deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) with or without posterolateral parametrectomy. METHODS: A multicenter, observational, retrospective, cohort study was performe…
OBJECTIVE: To characterize T lymphocyte infiltration and programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in early-stage endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC), ovarian endometriosis (OE), atypical…
(1) Background: The surgical treatment (ST) of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) presents technical difficulties and pitfalls. Surgeon’s experience and new technologies reduce the difficulty of identifying endometriosis lesions especial…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility and the efficacy of laparoscopic ureteroneocystostomy with round ligament bladder hitching. METHODS: This is a monocentric retrospective study. Enrolled patients affected by deep endometriosis unde…
The impact of Coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic on Italian Gynaecological Units practice and the compliance and satisfaction with available guidelines/recommendations is unknown. Therefore, a survey was conducted among all Italian Gynaecolo…
BACKGROUND: Deep endometriosis (DE) usually creates a distortion of the retroperitoneal anatomy and may infiltrate the parametria with an oncomimetic pathway similar to cervical cancer. The condition represents a severe manifestation of end…
Endometriosis is an estrogen-linked gynecological disease defined by the presence of endometrial tissue on extrauterine sites where it forms invasive lesions. Alterations in estrogen-mediated cellular signaling seems to have an essential ro…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate effectiveness and reproducibility of qualitative and quantitative near-infrared indocyanine green (NIR-ICG) analyses as a tool for anastomotic perfusion assessment after full-thickness bowel resection for rectosigmoid…
INTRODUCTION: A current challenge for endometriosis surgery is to correctly identify the localizations of disease, especially when small or hidden (occult endometriosis), and to exactly define their real extension. The use of near-infrared …
To assess the feasibility and the safety of the ultra-minimally invasive (U-MIS) approaches in gynecology, we compared our experience in percutaneous assisted hysterectomy (PSS-H) with a series of 3 mm mini-laparoscopy hysterectomy (m-LPS-H…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the application of surgical neuroanatomic principles for the diagnosis and treatment of deep infiltrating endometriosis involving the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. DESIGN: Video demonstration of laparosco…
α-lipoic Acid (ALA), also known as thioctic acid, is a biological thiol present in all types of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. It has been shown that ALA or its reduced form, DHLA, has several positive effects on human health, acting as …
The adaptation of the uterine environment into a favorable immunological and inflammatory milieu is a physiological process needed in normal pregnancy. A uterine hyperinflammatory state, whether idiopathic or secondary to hormonal or organi…
INTRODUCTION: Recto-vaginal endometriosis surgical management needing partial colpectomy is a surgically challenging condition and has been associated with a notable risk of major postoperative complications. In the present study we sought …
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a very common disease that affects up to 10% of the female population. The use of indocyanine green (ICG) dye has been proposed to allow the proper localization of endometriotic lesions during surgery. Our pur…
INTRODUCTION: The complete surgical removal of endometriosis lesions is not always feasible because some implants may be very small or hidden. The use of intraoperative near-infrared radiation (NIR) imaging after intravenous injection of in…
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a common benign gynecological condition that can be associated with a slightly increased risk of developing a wide range of malignancies. CASE PRESENTATION: We herein report a singular case of a 62-year-old wo…
