Absence of a Direct Effect of Recombinant Interleukins and Cultured Peritoneal Macrophages on Early Embryonic Development in the Mousel

On the basis of their recent studies, several researchers have suggested that the infertility associated with mild endometriosis is due to the alteration of peritoneal fluid, resulting in impairment of the viability of gametes or embryos. E…

Pleiotrophin (PTN) and midkine (MK) mRNA expression in eutopic and ectopic endometrium in advanced stage endometriosis
Molecular human reproduction ·doi:10.1093/molehr/8.4.350

Endometriosis is characterized by the ectopic implantation of endometrium on peritoneal surfaces. Angiogenic and growth factors may play a significant role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Midkine (MK) and pleiotrophin (PTN) are two re…

Laparoscopic use of the argon laser in nonendometriotic reproductive pelvic surgery.
The Journal of reproductive medicine

The major advantage of the argon laser in laparoscopic reproductive pelvic surgery is the ability to transmit the laser beam along a flexible fiber that can easily be directed at a lesion. Its use has been specifically described for the tre…
