INTRODUCTION: Atypical endometriosis (AE) is a histologically distinct entity considered a potential precursor to Endometriosis-Associated Ovarian Cancer (EAOC). Preoperative diagnosis is challenging as imaging often fails to distinguish AE…
Abstract Study question Is IVF more effective than surgery for treating infertility associated to ovarian and deep endometriosis detected at ultrasound? Summary answer The live birth rate within a year from the study’s beginning was signifi…
OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence and the characteristics of pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) in women with endometriosis. METHODS: This is a methodological paper that describes the 'Endometriosis and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction' (EndoPFD) mul…
Endometriosis and adenomyosis are complex gynecological conditions characterized by diverse clinical presentations, including superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SPE), ovarian endometrioma (OMA), and deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE).…
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…
Minimally invasive surgery emerged in the 1980s as a safe and effective technique which requires smaller incisions and, usually, a shorter hospital stay compared to traditional surgery. Since then, minimally invasive surgery has expanded in…
Ovarian endometriosis may increase the risk of malignancy. Several studies have suggested atypical endometriosis as the direct precursor of endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer. We performed an advanced, systematic search of the online m…
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 menstrual-related catamenial pneumothorax (CP) can be the first expression of thoracic endometriosis syndrome (TES), which is the presence of endometriotic lesions in the lungs and pleura, and pelvic endometriosis (PE). This …
BACKGROUND: Infertile women carrying ovarian endometriomas can be managed either with surgery or by in-vitro fertilization (IVF). The aim of this study was to compare ovarian responsiveness to controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in assiste…
The surgical management of endometrioma is still a matter of debate. Cystectomy, which is recognized as the standard technique, seems to be associated with a potential reduction in the ovarian reserve due to the inadvertent removal and ther…

Abstract Study question To evaluate whether the presence of concomitant autoimmunity in endometriosis patients may affect In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)/Intracytoplasmic Injection (ICSI) outcomes. Summary answer In ‘normo-responders’ patients…
The management of endometriosis-related infertility is still a challenging issue. Women can be managed with either surgery or in vitro fertilization (IVF). The decision is tailored to the patients considering pros and cons of both approache…
Pathogenesis of endometriosis is still unclear and a role of both innate and adaptive immune system has been postulated. Some recent findings have revealed an increased risk to have concomitant autoimmune disease in women with endometriosis…
The aim of this systematic review was to provide comprehensive and available data on the possible role of phytoestrogens (PE) for the treatment of endometriosis. We conducted an advanced, systematic search of online medical databases PubMed…
The correlation between endometriosis and adverse obstetric outcomes is still under debate. A defective deep placentation has been proposed as potential pathogenic mechanisms. The present study aimed to investigate the impact of endometrios…
BACKGROUND: Data about endometrioma ablation using energies with little thermal spread reported good results in terms of ovarian reserve and postoperative pregnancy rates. The aim of the present study was to assess the impact of one step CO…
Abstract Study question To investigate differences in In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)/Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) outcomes between endometriosis women who do or don’t have a concomitant autoimmune disease. Summary answer Despite a …
