BACKGROUND: High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), a noninvasive treatment method, has attracted increasing attention in recent years for the management of gynaecological diseases. This review summarizes current literature on the applica…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To explore the associations between adenomyosis patterns on transvaginal sonography (TVS) and surgical outcomes. DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study. SETTING: Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Beijing, China. PATIE…

PurposeWomen with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) show greater heterogeneity in ovarian responses during ovarian stimulation. We aimed to investigate the potential predicting factors among individualized basic parameters that affect poor o…

Endometriosis is a chronic condition with limited therapeutic options. The molecular aberrations promoting ectopic attachment and interactions with the local microenvironment sustaining lesion growth have been unclear, prohibiting developme…

PurposeThis study investigated the clinicopathological features and surgical procedures of adnexal masses with abdominal pain in pediatric and adolescent patients. Our objective was to better define the clinical presentation of adnexal tors…

PurposeTo analyze the clinical characteristics of abdominal pregnancy, and to explore the diagnosis and prognosis of different treatment methods.MethodsThe cases of patients with abdominal pregnancy admitted to Peking Union Medical College …

The two most prevalent subtypes of epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) are ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) and high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC). Patients with OCCC have a poor prognosis than those with HGSC due to chemoresistan…

BackgroundCircN4BP2L2 was previously identified to be significantly decreased in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and was associated with disease progression. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of plasma circN4BP2L2 u…

Emerging data have indicated that long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNA) are associated with the pathogenesis of endometriosis. However, few are associated with endometriosis‑associated infertility. In addition, to the best of our knowledge, the rol…

BackgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) are more stable than linear RNA molecules, which makes them promising diagnostic biomarkers for diseases. By circRNA-sequencing analysis, we previously found that circN4BP2L2 was significantly decreased in…

INTRODUCTION: There is currently no satisfactory model for predicting malignant transformation of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to construct and evaluate a risk model incorporating noninvasive clinical parameters to predict endom…

This study aims to explore the protective effects of 17 β-estradiol on the human uterosacral ligament fibroblasts (hUSLFs) under static or stretched conditions. The experiments were performed on hUSLFs derived from pelvic organ prolapse (PO…

BackgroundGut microbes were closely related to women's health. Previous studies reported that the gut microbes of premenopausal women were different from those of postmenopausal women. However, little was known about the relationship betwee…

The outbreak of COVID-19 coronavirus disease around the end of 2019 has become a pandemic. The preferred method for COVID-19 detection is the real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)-based technique; however, it also has certain limitat…

Background: Abdominal aggressive fibromatosis (AF) can be confounded with abdominal wall endomentriosis (AWE) because they share considerable similarity. Because of the different patient prognoses and treatment strategies available, accurat…

To the Editor: Primary vaginal carcinoma is a rare malignant disease, which represents only approximately 1% to 2% of female genital malignancies. Vaginal adenosis is defined by the presence of metaplastic cervical or endometrial epithelium…

Objectives: To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminata (LPD) following laparoscopic surgery with uncontained morcellation and to summarize clinical features of iatrogenic …

Background: This study aimed to investigate the specific vaginal microbiome in the differential diagnosis of endometriosis/adenomyosis (EM/AM)-associated chronic pelvic pain (CPP) from other types of CPP, and to explore the role of the vagi…

Adhesion is a postoperative complication that has plagued gynecologists for many years, as 60-90% of gynecological patients develop adhesions after abdominopelvic surgeries. Abdominopelvic adhesions could lead to chronic pelvic pain, infert…

BackgroundPelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects around 15% of postmenopausal women in China. Although it has been widely accepted that genetic variants could confer risk for POP, the genetic susceptibility variants remain largely unknown. Pre…

BACKGROUND: Pain sensitization processing in the central nervous system may be related to endometriosis-associated pain in patients. The purpose of this study was to understand the alterations in the abnormal pain response in central brain …

Pelvic mass onset following a hysterectomy due to benign disease is not rarely seen. Appropriate diagnosis and treatment are of great importance.This study aims to analyze the clinicopathological features of patients who have received surge…

Little is known about the epidemiological and clinicopathological characteristics of endometrial endometrioid carcinoma (EEC) coexisting with or arising in adenomyosis (EEC-A or EEC-AIA) due to their rarity. This study compared EEC-A and EE…

Abstract Background: Thoracic endometriosis syndrome (TES) is a rare disease in which a functioning endometrial tissue is observed in the pleura, lung parenchyma, airways, or diaphragm. The optimal management of this disease remains a matte…
