Objective The aim of this study was to assess inter-rater reliability for components of the Visual-Numeric Endometriosis Scoring System (VNESS). VNESS is a novel system for describing surgical findings in each compartment of the pelvis in a…

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Hysterectomy is one of the most common surgical procedures women will undergo in their lifetime. Several factors affect surgical outcomes. It has been suggested that high-volume surgeons favorably affect outcomes a…

This systematic review compares the effect of suturing and surgical energy used for hemostasis during ovarian cystectomies on ovarian function. A search of Scopus, Embase, and PubMed databases was conducted through December 1, 2016 for pros…

Studies have shown an increased risk of vaginal cuff dehiscence following total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). Patient variables associated with dehiscence have not been well described. This study aims to identify factors associated with …

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To describe the laparoscopic repair of bladder and bowel injuries using barbed suture and review postoperative outcomes. DESIGN: Retrospective medical chart review (Canadian Task Force classification II-3). SETTING: Large…

Abstract Introduction: Endometriosis is a largely benign, chronic inflammatory disease defined by the presence of endometrial-like glands surrounded by stroma. Epidemiologic studies suggest that endometriosis is an independent risk factor f…

PURPOSE: Mechanisms of immune dysregulation associated with advanced tumors are relatively well understood. Much less is known about the role of immune effectors against cancer precursor lesions. Endometrioid and clear-cell ovarian tumors p…

PURPOSE: Endometriosis, a largely benign, chronic inflammatory disease, is an independent risk factor for endometrioid and clear cell epithelial ovarian tumors. We aimed to identify plasma miRNAs that can be used to differentiate patients w…

OBJECTIVE: To compare laparoscopic anterior discoid resection (ADR) with low anterior resection (LAR). METHODS: This is a retrospective review of a cohort (Canadian Task Force classification II-2) of patients undergoing laparoscopic ADR or…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To review the clinical presentation, surgical and pathologic findings, and long-term outcomes after excision of ovarian remnants using a predominantly laparoscopic approach. DESIGN: Retrospective medical record review and …

Abstract Objective: Examine the expression and immunogenicity of a known ovarian tumor-associated antigen, MUC1, in ectopic endometriosis lesions and epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Determine whether an imbalance in CD4 T cell subsets cont…
