BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age globally and is a leading cause of chronic pelvic pain and infertility. Accurate classification is essential for preoperative diagnosis, surgical…
Assisted reproductive technology procedures infrequently cause pelvic abscesses, but the risk is higher in patients with endometriosis. If antibiotic treatment of a pelvic abscess is unsuccessful, surgery is required-even during pregnancy. …
Conclusions: Our findings suggest that the NMS-E represents a valuable preoperative diagnostic tool for endometriosis, effectively correlating with the disease's severity and surgical outcomes. Incorporating the NMS-E into clinical pra…
The abdominal wall is an uncommon site for endometriosis that occurs in the soft tissues of the wound site after laparotomy. The present study reviewed cases of post-cesarean section abdominal wall endometriosis that were surgically treated…
A surgical technique has been developed using a robot-assisted system to create the surgical anatomical structure of the uterine artery caudal space (UACS), a landmark for performing extrafascial hysterectomy, enabling a safe and easy param…
BACKGROUND: Accurate diagnosis of retroflexed uterus in daily practice is essential because this condition is related to pelvic pain and deep endometriosis. Uterine flexion can be measured by transvaginal ultrasonography (TVUS), a cost-effe…
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to assess the potential risk factors for abscess development in patients with endometrioma who present with an acute abdomen. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the records of 51 …
A 31-year-old nulliparous Japanese woman visited the clinic due to worsening dysmenorrhea. A cystic endometriotic lesion was found in the vesico-uterine pouch. Laparoscopic surgery was chosen due to the severe dysmenorrhea. Her first oocyte…
Endometriosis is a precancerous condition for endometriosis‑associated ovarian cancer (EAOC). In the present study, conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and MR relaxometry were used to examine a case of clear cell carcinoma that ar…
This report describes two patients with sporadic lymphangioleiomyomatosis complicated by protein-losing enteropathy (PLE). Imaging studies indicated retroperitoneal lymphangioleiomyomas and abnormalities of the adjacent digestive tract. End…
INTRODUCTION: Many patients with endometriosis are treated with medication or by surgical approaches. However, a small number of patients do not respond to medication and are inoperable because of comorbidities. This case report shows the e…
We report the case of a patient with adenomyosis complicated by deep vein thrombosis in whom low-dose gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) therapy was useful as a uterus-conserving therapeutic option. The patient was a 34-year-old…
The present studies were carried out to clarify the indigenous bacterial flora in the female internal genitalia and surrounding tissues and the pathogenesis of parametritis. Twenty nine patients with uterine tumors which consisted of sixtee…
