c-myc protooncogene polypeptide expression in endometriosis
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology ·doi:10.1016/0002-9378(91)90580-k
article 1991
Macrophage-conditioned media enhance endometrial stromal cell proliferation in vitro.
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology

It has been hypothesized that the activated peritoneal macrophages of endometriosis, rather than being a response to ectopic endometrium, may contribute to its pathogenesis. This study attempts to define the effect of macrophage-derived gro…

article 1991
Paracrine interactions between platelet-activating factor and prostaglandins in hormonally-treated human luteal phase endometrium in vitro
·doi:10.1530/jrf.0.0910301

Stromal cells and epithelial glands were separated after enzymic digestion of specimens obtained from 27 women at hysterectomy or endometrial biopsy during the luteal phase, and then cultured to confluence in vitro. PGE release into the cul…

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs in the treatment of endometriomas
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology ·doi:10.1016/0002-9378(90)90435-a

Effect of ovarian endometriosis on ovulation in rabbits
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology ·doi:10.1016/0002-9378(89)90083-5
article 1989
Endometriosis : contemporary concepts in clinical management
article 1989
Laser-induced fluorescence of ectopic endometrium in rabbits.
Obstetrics and gynecology

Endometriosis appears under a wide array of morphologies, and early microscopic disease escapes visual inspection. To improve endoscopic diagnosis, we studied the optical properties of ectopic endometrial tissue, in particular laser-induced…

Microscopic Endometriosis
Contributions to gynecology and obstetrics ·doi:10.1159/000414840

Etiology of infertility in monkeys with endometriosis: luteinized unruptured follicles, luteal phase defects, pelvic adhesions, and spontaneous abortions
Fertility and Sterility ·doi:10.1016/s0015-0282(16)47552-7

To elucidate the etiology of infertility due to endometriosis, we autografted endometrial or adipose tissue to the pelvic peritoneum of 21 cynomolgus monkeys. These primates were divided into five groups: control animals with adipose tissue…

article 1984
Etiology of infertility in monkeys with endometriosis: Measurement of peritoneal fluid prostaglandins
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology ·doi:10.1016/s0002-9378(84)80136-2
article 1982
Conservative Surgery versus Expectant Management for the Infertile Patient with Mild Endometriosis
