Appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (AMN) is defined as a distended, mucous-filled appendix. It is a rare condition seen in only 8% of cases of appendiceal tumors. Appendiceal mucocele associated with endometriosis is extremely rare with only 16 …
The incidence (rate/100,000) of BOT gradually increases with age from 15-19 years of age and peaks at nearly 4.5 cases/100,000 for the 55-59 year age group (NP3). In the presence of a benign ovarian mass, the standardized risk ratio of sero…
IntroductionSurgical management of deep endometriosis with colorectal involvement remains an option after failure of medical treatments. Conventional laparoscopy is currently considered the standard approach for surgical treatment. Recently…
Laparoscopic discoid colorectal resection is a surgical option for bowel endometriosis, 1 of the most severe forms of endometriosis. However, no study has clearly analyzed the feasibility or the complication and recurrence rates of the proc…
BACKGROUND: PPOS protocols, initially described for FP in women with cancer, have many advantages compared to antagonist protocols. PPOS protocols were not evaluated for women with endometriosis. The objective of the study was to describe f…
Introduction and hypothesisThe aim was to develop a nomogram based on clinical and surgical factors to predict the likelihood of voiding dysfunction after surgery for deep endometriosis.MethodsThis was a retrospective study of 789 patients …
BackgroundThe management of endometriosis-related infertility is still under debate. The Endometriosis Fertility Index (EFI) score is performant to predict the occurrence of a spontaneous pregnancy following surgery, but was not evaluated i…
Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate three-dimensional (3D) T2 MRI before and after vaginal opacification (VO) by gel (3DT2VO) and the additional value of 3DT1 with fat-suppression (3DT1FS) MRI in the diagnosis of vaginal endomet…
OBJECTIVE: Surgical management of deep endometriosis is associated with a high incidence of lower urinary tract dysfunction. The aim of the current systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess the rates of voiding dysfunction according…
AIM: Using a prospective database of discoid resection performed in two tertiary referral centres, the aim of this study is to assess the feasibility, short-term complication rates and clinical outcomes, including voiding dysfunction, of th…
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition that affects primarily young women. Imaging plays a pivotal role for the diagnosis and pre-surgical mapping of the disease. By comparison, the role of imaging in the identification of disea…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To describe complications following surgery for deep endometriosis (DE) without bowel involvement and to develop a nomogram for predicting postoperative complications. DESIGN: Retrospective study. SETTING: Tertiary referr…
ObjectiveTo study the fertility and live birth (LB) rate in women after surgery for deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) without bowel involvement and to evaluate the predictive factors of LB after DIE surgery without bowel involvement.Stu…
ObjectiveEndometriosis affects 10% of women in reproductive age and alters fertility. Its management is still debated notably the timing of surgery and ART in infertility. Several tools have been created to guide the practitioner and the co…
ObjectiveTo evaluate the risk of rectovaginal fistula after en bloc hysterectomy and colorectal resection (H-CR) for endometriosis using prevesical peritoneum interposition.Study designA retrospective study conducted at Tenon University Hos…
ObjectiveThe recurrence rate after colorectal surgery for endometriosis is up to 50% at 5 years. The aim of the current review and meta-analysis was to assess recurrence associated with shaving, disc excision, and segmental resection for en…
Study objectiveTo compare 1.5-Tesla (1.5 T) to 3-Tesla (3 T) Magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) in assessing multifocal (multiple lesions affecting the same segment) and multicentric (multiple lesions affecting several digestive segments…
Diagnostic performance of MR imaging for the diagnosis of pelvic endometriosis are good. Even if some differences of performances exists according the location considered, the risk of misdiagnosis is lower than 10% for trained teams (NP2). …
STUDY QUESTION: What are fertility outcomes in patients surgically managed for large deep endometriosis infiltrating the rectum who intend to get pregnant postoperatively? SUMMARY ANSWER: Surgical management for rectal endometriosis is foll…
BackgroundActual European pathological classification of early-stage endometrial cancer (EC) may show insufficient accuracy to precisely stratify recurrence risk, leading to potential over or under treatment. Micro-RNAs are post-transcripti…
Endometriosis is a frequent pathology with a high incidence of deep infiltrating endometriosis and complex forms that can affect 20% of patients with endometriosis. The incidence of infertility associated with endometriosis can reach 50%. T…
