Endometriosis is associated with increased risk of epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs). Using data from large endometriosis and EOC genome-wide association meta-analyses, we estimate the genetic correlation and evaluate the causal relationshi…

Abstract Endometriosis is a common, benign condition characterized by extensive heterogeneity in lesion appearance and patient symptoms. We profiled transcriptomes of 207,949 individual cells from endometriomata (n=7), extra-ovarian endomet…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: Surgeons employ various methods for evaluating what is considered a common occurrence after gynecologic operations, postoperative urinary retention (POUR). Few have reported the incidence of POUR with a liberal voiding prot…

The human fallopian tube harbors the cell of origin for the majority of high-grade serous "ovarian" cancers (HGSCs), but its cellular composition, particularly the epithelial component, is poorly characterized. We perform single-cell transc…

Background: • Endometriosis is a benign gynecologic condition associated with pain and infertility, affecting up to 30% of women • Treatment of endometriosis often includes a combination of medical and surgical management • Short term impro…
