OBJECTIVE: To compare pain, menstrual flow, and quality of life (QoL) between women undergoing surgery for endometriosis only compared with women with endometriosis and coexisting adenomyosis. METHODS: A cross-sectional study, set in two t…
OBJECTIVE: This systematic review and meta-analysis compared the efficacy of dienogest (DNG) and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists in the management of endometriosis-related symptoms following surgical intervention, their relat…
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory hormone-dependent condition that is characterized by the presence of functional endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus. It affects 6%–10% of women of reproductive age and is associated with …
OBJECTIVE: This systematic review and Bayesian network meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the comparative efficacy and safety of various laparoscopic techniques for endometrioma management, focusing on their impact on fertility outcomes and ov…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: The objective was to evaluate the clinical and demographic characteristics of patients undergoing endometriosis surgery in the public healthcare system, estimate the direct costs related to low- and high-complexity procedur…
Objective: To prospectively evaluate quality of life and symptom progression in patients before and after laparoscopic excision of endometriotic lesions, comparing outcomes across type of healthcare service (public vs private) and disease t…
Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological condition affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and up to 50% of those with infertility. It is characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity…
OBJECTIVE: to evaluate the association between symptoms and the site of endometriosis lesions using machine learning analysis. DESIGN: retrospective study. SETTING: Two tertiary hospitals. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 726 patients undergoing…
Adenomyosis is associated with dysmenorrhea and chronic pelvic pain; however, the triggering mechanisms of painful stimuli and the role of uterine nerve fibers in the manifestation of pain remain poorly understood. The objective of this stu…
OBJECTIVES: To validate probe-based Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (pCLE) as a method in assessing endometriosis during conventional and robot-assisted laparoscopy. STUDY DESIGN: Pilot study, including five women in Hospital Moriah, São Pau…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between genetic haplotypes associated with celiac disease (Human Leucocyte Antigen [HLA] DQ2 and DQ8) with the diagnosis, clinical presentation, and location of endometriosis in Brazilian women. METH…
Endometriosis's pathophysiology remains incompletely understood, with evidence pointing towards a dysregulated immune response. Regulatory T (Treg) cells, pivotal in maintaining self-tolerance, may facilitate the survival of ectopic endomet…
Endometriosis can be classified into three phenotypes: superficial, ovarian, and deep. Deep endometriosis (DE) has been associated with more severe pain symptoms, although no large-scale studies have evaluated the association between pain i…
