Introduction Simple hysterectomy (SH) is a frequently performed surgery for treating benign uterine conditions. The da Vinci® Surgical System (dVSS; Intuitive Surgical, Inc., Sunnyvale, California, US) received FDA approval in 2005 for robo…
A 63-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with a right lower abdominal mass and general fatigue. Preoperative examination suggested a large ovarian tumor or cecal carcinoma. However, her intraoperative diagnosis was colon cancer; we …
PurposePrevious epidemiologic studies have shown that smoking, obesity, and physical inactivity are associated with poor survival following a diagnosis of ovarian cancer. Yet, the combined relationship of these unfavorable lifestyle factors…
Background: Comorbidities can affect survival of ovarian cancer patients by influencing treatment efficacy. However, little evidence exists on the association between individual concurrent comorbidities and prognosis in ovarian cancer patie…
Endometriosis is observed in ∼10% of reproductive age women. Ovarian endometriosis not only causes dysmenorrhea but also causes infertility and a high risk of adenocarcinoma. Due to its scattered nature, complete surgical resection is diffi…
Laparoscopy has become the standard surgery for the treatment of benign ovarian tumors. The aim of this study was to evaluate the appropriateness of laparoscopy for ovarian tumors, including those with malignant potential. A total of 487 pa…
ObjectiveOur aim was to examine the relationship between the levels of cytokines in peritoneal fluid and its embryo toxicity.Study designThe levels of interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor were measured in peritoneal fluid from infertile …
Glycogen content in endometrium with endometriosis was about half of that without endometriosis at the secretory phase, whereas no difference was found in the proliferative phase. The activity of glycogen synthetase in endometrium with endo…
A primary cell culture of endometriotic cells was established to examine the hormonal regulation of endometriosis. The addition of estradiol had no effect on the DNA synthesis of cultured endometriotic cells. Progesterone at 10(-7) M caused…
A primary cell culture of endometriotic cells was established to examine the hormonal regulation involved in the growth of endometriosis. The addition of estradiol had no effect on the DNA synthesis of cultured endometriotic cells. Progeste…
To clarify the mechanism of infertility associated with endometriosis (EM), the effect of peritoneal fluid (PF) on early embryogenesis was examined. The addition of PF (5%) had no effect on the development of mouse 2-cell embryos. Since the…
Luteal function in 44 infertile women with endometriosis were studied with reference to prolactin (PRL) and compared with 34 unexplained infertile women without endometriosis. To assess luteal function, serum progesterone (P4) levels were m…
