Unusually rapid growth of bilateral endometriomas and acute bilateral hydronephrosis
Gynecological endocrinology : the official journal of the International Society of Gynecological Endocrinology ·doi:10.3109/09513590.2011.569795

The relationship between microvessel density, proliferative activity and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor-A and its receptors in eutopic endometrium and endometriotic lesions
Reproduction (Cambridge, England) ·doi:10.1530/rep.1.01110

Studies were performed to elucidate the possible relationship between microvessel density, proliferative activity and angiogenesis in eutopic endometrium from women with and without endometriosis and peritoneal endometriotic lesions. The qu…
