BACKGROUND AND AIMS: In March 2022, updates in the Australian Medicare Benefits Schedule relating to endometriosis surgery were made relating to item numbers 35637, 35631 and 35632 (division of 35638) and 35641. Updated codes aligned with r…
BACKGROUND: Inter-observer agreement for the American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists (AAGL) 2021 Endometriosis Classification staging system has not been described. Its predecessor staging system, the revised American Society for…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: Externally validate the American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists (AAGL) staging system against surgical complexity and compare diagnostic accuracy with revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine (rASRM) st…
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized endometrial-like tissue present outside of the uterus, affecting approximately 10% of reproductive age women. It is associated with abdomino-pelvic pain, infertility and other n…
OBJECTIVES: To determine whether ovarian fixation at transvaginal ultrasound (TVU) is a marker for a need for laparoscopic pelvic sidewall surgery (ie, ureterolysis or dissection of adhesions involving the pelvic sidewall). The relationship…
Study objectiveThe aim of this study was to validate temporally and externally the ultrasound-based endometriosis staging system (UBESS) to predict the level of complexity of laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis.DesignA multicenter, inter…
ObjectiveIt is well-established that there is a strong association between ovarian endometriomas (OE) and deep endometriosis (DE) and rectouterine pouch (RP) obliteration. We aimed to determine the prevalence of DE and RP obliteration in th…
Over recent years, there has been major advancement in the use of transvaginal ultrasound (TVU) for the pre-operative diagnosis and staging of deep endometriosis. The International Deep Endometriosis Analysis (IDEA) Consensus paper establis…
ObjectiveEvaluate whether symptoms and/or transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) 'soft markers' (ovarian immobility and/or site-specific tenderness (SST)) are associated with endometriosis type/location.Study designMulticenter prospective observatio…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To validate the preoperative ultrasound-based endometriosis staging system (UBESS) for predicting the correct Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RANZCOG) and Australasian Gynaecolo…
ObjectiveKnowledge of rectouterine cul-de-sac state and consistent classification among surgeons are important in the surgical management of women with endometriosis. The objective of this study was to determine the diagnostic accuracy and …
Transvaginal ultrasound (TVU) is evolving as an essential tool in the work up for women with pelvic pain and suspected endometriosis. Several studies have demonstrated the accuracy and reliability of TVU for the diagnosis of pelvic deep inf…
Adenomyosis is a heterogenous gynecologic condition. Patients with adenomyosis can have a range of clinical presentations. The most common presentation of adenomyosis is heavy menstrual bleeding and dysmenorrhea; however, patients can also …
Urinary tract endometriosis has been reported to affect 1% of women with pelvic endometriosis,1 and approximately 10%of these women will have ureteric endometriosis.2 In a recent study, which included 627 women with histologically confirmed…
In recent years, knowledge has evolved regarding the role of transvaginal sonography in the assessment of the pouch of Douglas status and the preoperative prediction of extraovarian endometriosis in specific locations. Despite these advance…
Transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS) is recommended as the first line imaging tool for the pre-operative diagnosis of posterior compartment deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE), with a sensitivity and specificity for the prediction of bowel …
Abstract Introduction : Endometriosis is a chronic peritoneal disease that may progress as a deep infiltrating lesion involving the posterior compartment of the pelvis. Efforts to improve pre‐operative knowledge of the location and extent o…
Office sonovaginography (SVG) challenges the concept of the "normal" pelvic ultrasound in women with chronic pelvic pain and suspected endometriosis. When positive for posterior compartment deep infiltrating endometriosis, with or without P…
Objectives : The aim of this study was to perform saline sonovaginography (SVG) in women with suspected rectovaginal endometriosis (RVE) in order to establish the thickness of the rectovaginal septum (RVS) in this population and to predict …
