BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic segmental bowel resection, disc excision and rectal shaving are described as surgical options for the treatment of bowel endometriosis, but the gold standard has not yet established. The aim of the study is to inves…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate ultrasonographic findings as a first-line imaging tool to indirectly predict the presence of parametrial endometriosis (PE) in women with suspected deep endometriosis (DE) undergoing surgery. DESIGN: Retrospect…
Background The recurrence of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) after its surgical excision is a big problem: postoperative treatment is crucial.Objective To compare two postoperative treatments: Dienogest and GnRH agonists.Design Prospe…
BackgroundDiaphragmatic endometriosis (DE) is a rare and often misdiagnosed condition. Most of the times it is asymptomatic and due to the low accuracy of diagnostic tests, it is almost always detected during surgery for pelvic endometriosi…
Abstract Study question Is conservative laparoscopic treatment with RFA (radiofrequency thermal ablation) related to a good outcome on a long-term follow-up? Summary answer RFA for diffuse adenomyosis was related to a good outcome on a long…
IntroductionTransvaginal ultrasound is fundamental for the mapping of endometriosis, and the imaging criteria have been clearly described for different organs study. However, no specific ultrasonographic signs of tubal endometriosis have be…
Over the last twenty years, segmental resection (SR) has been the technique most frequently used to treat bowel endometriosis. Nowadays, it is most commonly performed by laparoscopy; however, there is evidence that it can be safely performe…
ObjectiveTo study possible associations between endometriosis and pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).DesignRetrospective cohort analysis over 14 consecutive years, based on medical records and insurance coding in a tertiary care endometriosi…
BackgroundBowel endometriosis is the most common pattern of Deep Endometriosis (DE). Arising from the posterior portion of the cervix and spreading to the recto-vaginal septum, utero-sacral and parametrial ligaments could lead to a distorti…
BACKGROUND: Bladder endometriosis (BE) is the most common external site of deep-infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) affecting the urinary tract. Frequently associated with other DIE lesions, it can be strongly related to a ventral spread of ad…
