INTRODUCTION: Surgical experience and hospital procedure volumes have been associated with the risk of severe complications in expert centers for endometriosis in France. However, little is known about other certified units in Central Europ…
Endometriosis is a painful gynecological condition characterized by ectopic growth of endometrial cells. Little is known about its pathogenesis, which is partially due to a lack of suitable experimental models. Here, we use endometrial stro…
Aims The aim of this official guideline published and coordinated by the German Society of Gynaecology and Obstetrics (DGGG) in cooperation with the Austrian Society for Gynaecology and Obstetrics (OEGGG) and the Swiss Society for Gynaecolo…
Abstract Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the impact of endometriosis on subsequent pregnancy and delivery. Methods: retrospective analysis by questionnaire / interview of cases (endometriosis laparoscopically removed / child wis…
The present article summarises the recommendations for the handling, histopathological workup, diagnostics and reporting in surgical pathology of biopsies and resection specimens in patients with the clinical diagnosis of endometriosis. In …
Downregulated microRNA-142-3p signaling contributes to the pathogenesis of endometriosis [1] [2], an invasive disease where the lining of the uterus grows at ectopic locations, by yet incompletely understood mechanisms. Using bioinformatics…
Downregulated microRNA-142-3p signaling contributes to the pathogenesis of endometriosis, an invasive disease where the lining of the uterus grows at ectopic locations, by yet incompletely understood mechanisms. Using bioinformatics and in …
Abstract Endometriosis is a painful gynaecological condition characterized by ectopic growth of endometrial cells outside of the uterus. Little is known about the mechanisms by which endometrial fragments invade tissues. This is partially d…
INTRODUCTION: Stem cells mediate cyclic regeneration of the endometrium. The upregulated expression of receptors and modulators of the notch signaling pathway in endometriosis suggests an involvement in the pathogenetic process. Here, we in…
PURPOSE: To study if short-term exposure (2 h and 6 h) of endometrial/endometriotic tissues and cells to 10% seminal plasma (SP) can induce EMT/metaplasia. METHODS: Basic research experimental study was carried out in a University hospital…
Endometriosis is characterized by growth of endometrial tissue at ectopic locations. Down-regulation of microRNA miR-200b is observed in endometriosis and malignant disease, driving tumour cells towards an invasive state by enhancing epithe…
PURPOSE: To evaluate normal uterine tissue with special regard to age and the presence of uterine fibroids and adenomyosis with transvaginal elastography. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a prospective study elastographic data of the uterus were …
Endometriosis is associated with severe pelvic pain and reduced fertility. Recently, it has been linked to a dysregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs), which are post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. The functional effect of dysregu…
PURPOSE: To evaluate the presence of a lesion indicative of endometriosis with transvaginal elastography. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Transvaginal ultrasound and clinical examination were carried out in 48 women with clinical symptoms indicativ…
