OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis, a gynecological condition characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus, affects millions of women worldwide. This study aimed to investigate neurotrimin (NTM)'s expression, a glycerophosph…

OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis is a disease in which stromal cells and endometrial glands extend outside of the uterine cavity. Nevertheless, treatment failure and recurrence cause difficulties in management. This study aimed to evaluate the rece…

ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to describe the single-surgeon experience on transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery for uterosacral ligament suspension in patients with severe prolapse who had concomitant vagi…

INTRODUCTION: Uterine myomas represent the most frequently diagnosed tumors among women of childbearing age. Symptoms often include profuse menstrual bleeding, diminished quality of life, and in some cases, infertility. The size and positio…

Purpose: The present study aimed to compare surgical outcomes and cost analysis of robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) and conventional laparoscopic surgery (CLS) hysterectomy procedures. Materials and Methods: The patients who underwent total r…

Objective: Endometriosis is a common disease that affects 5%-15% of women of reproductive age. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of dienogest (DNG) on improving pain scores of patients with endometriosis.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of hemostasis by electrocoagulation versus suture on endometrioma recurrence and pregnancy rates after laparoscopic cystectomy in uni/bilateral endometriomas. Materials and Methods: Fo…

In this prospective randomised placebo-controlled study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of New Cross linked Hyaluronan Gel (NCH gel) on the quality of life of patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery due to Deep Infiltrating Endometrios…

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the rates of pain and mass recurrence of the patients over 40 years old with endometriosis who underwent ovarian cystectomy or uni/bilateral oophorectomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted wit…

ObjectiveTo declare our initial experience on hysterectomy cases performed using vaginally-assisted natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery.Material and methodsThe study was conducted with data from 12 patients in our department who…

Background/Aims: To identify the role of serum caspase 3, Annexin A2 (ANXA2), and Soluble Fas Ligand (sFasL) levels in the prediction of endometriosis severity. Methods: The study was performed on 90 women who were candidates for laparoscop…

In gynecology, the serum CA125 and CA19-9 levels are elevated in patients with malignant and benign conditions especially in ovarian tumors. Although endometriosis is a benign condition, increased levels of the tumor markers CA125 and CA19-…

ObjectivesWe hypothesized that treatment of adenomyosis with the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) can concurrently improve urinary incontinence along with irritative and obstructive symptoms and thus positively affect …

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Adenomyosis causes problems in women, including dysmenorrhea and abnormally heavy and prolonged menstrual bleeding; however, its etiology is unknown. We hypothesized that urinary symptoms are frequent in patient…
