Endometriosis is a risk factor for epithelial ovarian cancer; however, whether this risk extends to all invasive histological subtypes or borderline tumours is not clear. We undertook an international collaborative study to assess the assoc…
To investigate the association between self-reported endometriosis and the putative functional promoter +331C/T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and the PROGINS allele.
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis affects approximately 10–15% of reproductive-aged women. The disease is characterized by functional endometrial glands outside the uterine cavity; peritoneal, ovarian, and deep infiltrating endometriosis lesions …
BACKGROUND: In U.S. women, lifetime risk of ovarian cancer is 1.37%, but some women are at a substantially lower or higher risk than this average. METHODS: We have characterized the distribution of lifetime risk in the general population. P…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of functional endometrial tissue outside of the uterine cavity. It affects 1 in 10 women of reproductive age. This chronic condition commonly leads to consequences such as pelvic pa…
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review will address the recent literature regarding adolescent endometriosis. RECENT FINDINGS: An increasing body of literature suggests that there are symptoms of endometriosis present in adolescents. In addition, t…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between self-reported endometriosis and the putative functional promoter +331C/T single nucleotide polymorphism and the PROGINS allele. DESIGN: Control subjects from ovarian cancer case-control stu…
The presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus, typically in the pelvis, is known as endometriosis. An adolescent with this diagnosis usually presents with chronic pelvic pain, and she and her family are anxious for an exp…
Factors that increase inflammation have been suggested to influence the development of ovarian cancer, but these factors have not been well studied. To further investigate this question, we studied the role of talc use, history of endometri…
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether Oxiplex/AP Gel (FzioMed, San Luis Obispo, CA) was safe and preliminarily effective in reducing postsurgical adhesions after adnexal surgery by laparoscopy. DESIGN: Prospective, multicenter, double-blind, ran…
La presencia de glandulas endometriales y estroma fuera del utero, tipicamente en la pelvis, se conoce como endometriosis. Una adolescente con este diagnostico normalmente se presenta con dolor pelvico cronico, y ella y su familia estaran d…
