BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Cystic adenomyoma is a rare focal cystic variant of adenomyosis, and giant lesions are particularly uncommon. Malignant transformation has been reported in endometriosis-related disease, but the molecular features of cy…
The fibrosis mechanism in endometriosis is not elucidated. We investigated the role of eosinophil in fibrosis of endometriosis. The endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) and endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) were subjected to in vitro experi…
Background/Aim: Endometriosis is characterized by the accumulation of immune cells in endometrial lesions and the peritoneal cavity. Macrophages contribute to the growth and neovascularization of endometriotic lesions. Vascular endothelial …
Endometriosis is highly dependent on angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. Prostaglandin E2, an arachidonic acid metabolite, has been shown to promote the formation of new blood and lymphatic vessels. However, the role of another arachidonic …
Angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis contribute to the development of endometriosis. We recently reported that thromboxane A2 (TXA2) receptor signaling involves in angiogenesis in critical limb ischemia and lymphangiogenesis in inflamed diaph…
'Polypoid endometriosis' is a rare variant of endometriosis. We describe a case of an extremely large polypoid endometriosis mimicking a malignant tumor. A 37-year-old nulliparous woman was referred due to the rapid growth of an endometriot…
A case of endometriosis with a giant tumor in the pelvic cavity presenting with intestinal obstruction is described. A 48-year-old woman was referred to the hospital after colostomy for intenstinal obstruction at another hospital, where she…
