Objective: The aim of this study is checking the blood level of cadmium (Cd) and lead in the patients with endometriosis or uterine leiomyomas. Materials and Methods: A total of 100 patients who underwent surgery for gynecological disease i…

OBJECTIVE: We compared the expression levels of Müllerian inhibiting substance (MIS)/anti-Müllerian hormone type II receptor (AMHRII) in uterine myoma and adenomyosis to evaluate the possibility of using MIS/anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) as …

Purpose of Investigation: This study aimed to assess the pregnancy outcome of patients with uterine fibroid or adenomyosis treated by ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (USgHIFU) ablation. Materials and Methods: Treatment w…

An adenomyomectomy is a conservative-surgical option for preserving fertility. Conventional laparoscopic adenomyomectomies present difficulties in adenomyoma removal and suturing of the remaining myometrium. Robot-assisted laparoscopic surg…

Müllerian inhibiting substance (MIS), also called anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), is a member of the transforming growth factor-β super-family of growth and differentiation response modifiers. It is produced in immature Sertoli cells in male …

Objective: Mullerian inhibiting Substance (MIS), also known as anti Mullerian hormone (AMH), is produced from Sertoli cells of fetal testis and it causes regression of Mullerian ducts. MIS is known to act as a regulator of female reproducti…

CONTEXT: Müllerian inhibiting substance (MIS) is produced in Sertoli cells of fetal testis and causes regression of müllerian ducts in male embryos. MIS also can induce the cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in müllerian duct-derived tumors in…

Although endometriosis is a common disease in women of reproductive age, rectal endometriosis is rare and lymph node involvement by endometriosis is considered uncommon. We report a 37-year-old woman who had irregular lower abdominal pain a…
