Cystic female pelvic lesions, whether of ovarian or non-ovarian origin, are prevalent in routine clinical practice, with the majority originating from gynaecological (ovarian) structures, ranging from functional cysts to malignant ovarian t…

OBJECTIVE: Surgery is a therapeutic option for patients with deep endometriosis presenting with infertility and/or pain refractory to medical treatment. Major postoperative complications may impair quality of life and delay the initiation o…

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the safety, feasibility and imaging outcomes of percutaneous image-guided cryoablation as a minimally invasive treatment for umbilical endometriosis (UE). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between March 2017 and December 2024,…

PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility, interobserver reproducibility, reporting efficiency, and perceived clinical impact of the Deep Pelvic Endometriosis Index (dPEI) when implemented as part of structured MRI reporting in routine clinical …

The Deep Pelvic Endometriosis Index (dPEI) is a preoperative MRI-based score initially validated to predict surgical outcomes in patients undergoing laparoscopic treatment for deep pelvic endometriosis (DPE). Its applicability in robotic-as…

ObjectiveTo provide up-to-date European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) guidelines for staging and follow-up of patients with ovarian cancer (OC).MethodsTwenty-one experts, members of the female pelvis imaging ESUR subcommittee from …

Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological disorder in women of reproductive age. It is the leading cause of chronic pelvic pain. While the mechanisms underlying this pain remain elusive, rare cases of pelvic nerve involvement can result in…

Abstract Background The Deep Pelvic Endometriosis Index (dPEI) is a preoperative MRI-based score initially validated to predict surgical outcomes in patients undergoing laparoscopic treatment for deep pelvic endometriosis (DPE). Its applic…

Endometriosis is a chronic and disabling gynecological disease that affects women of reproductive age. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered the cornerstone radiological technique for both the diagnosis and management of endometrio…

Endometriosis is a common crippling disease in women of reproductive age. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered the cornerstone radiological technique for both the diagnosis and management of endometriosis. While its sensitivity, e…

OBJECTIVE: Despite various surgical and nonsurgical strategies for abdominal wall endometriosis, the lack of definitive guidance on optimal treatment choice leads to clinical uncertainty. This review scrutinizes the safety and efficacy of a…

OBJECTIVES: We studied a post operative classification of surgical complexity in endometriosis. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective monocentric observational study was conducted between January 2001 to December 2019 and included 764 women with DE …

IMPORTANCE: Preoperative mapping of deep pelvic endometriosis (DPE) is crucial as surgery can be complex and the quality of preoperative information is key. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the Deep Pelvic Endometriosis Index (dPEI) magnetic resonan…

PURPOSE: To retrospectively evaluate the relief of pain after percutaneous image-guided cryoablation of symptomatic extraperitoneal endometriosis (EE). MATERIAL AND METHODS: From 2017 to 2022, cryoablation of EE was performed at a single i…

OBJECTIVES: To assess the ability of physical examination (PE), transvaginal ultrasonography (TVUS), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) alone and combined to diagnose deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). DESIGN: We retrospectively quer…

PURPOSE: The purpose of this consensus article was to develop guidelines by a focused panel of experts to elaborate a lexicon of image interpretation, and a standardized region-based reporting of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) with m…

OBJECTIVE: Parametrial involvement (PI) in endometriosis is poorly defined resulting in an underestimation of its impact during surgical excision. The aim of our study was to assess the surgical complications associated with parametrectomy …

STUDY QUESTION: Is an MRI classification of deep pelvic endometriosis (DE) able to correctly predict the risk of DE surgery. SUMMARY ANSWER: A new radiological classification, that we have called the deep pelvic endometriosis index (dPEI) c…

Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition that affects primarily young women. Imaging plays a pivotal role for the diagnosis and pre-surgical mapping of the disease. By comparison, the role of imaging in the identification of disea…

ObjectiveThe recurrence rate after colorectal surgery for endometriosis is up to 50% at 5 years. The aim of the current review and meta-analysis was to assess recurrence associated with shaving, disc excision, and segmental resection for en…
