STUDY OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the prevalence of endometriosis in the intrapelvic portion of the round ligaments of the uterus (RLUs) and to propose criteria for their excision. DESIGN: Retrospective case series analysis of women undergoi…

INTRODUCTION: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is one of the most frequent symptoms in women of reproductive age. This is an enigmatic clinical condition that results from the complex interactions of physiological and psychological factors with di…

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to analyze the macroscopic and histological changes that occur in experimental endometriosis after treatment with Uncaria tomentosa. STUDY DESIGN: Experimental endometriosis was induced in twenty-five f…

Endometriosis is a benign gynaecologycal disease defined as the presence of functional endometrial implants out of uterus, mainly in pelvis. The cyclin‐dependent kinase inhibitor p27 kip1 seems to play a critical role in this process. Havin…

Introduction Endometriosis is a benign gynaecologycal disease, defined as the presence of functional endometrial implants out of uterus, mainly in pelvis. Cell cycle and apoptosis disturbs could be associated with this disease as well as al…

Presently, little is understood about how endometriosis is established or maintained, or how genetic factors can predispose women to the disease. Because of the crucial role that the progesterone receptor polymorphism PROGINS plays in predi…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of the p27 gene polymorphism in women with endometriosis. STUDY DESIGN: Transversal case-control study. Genomic DNA was extracted from cells collected from buccal swabs. The p27 V109G polymorphism w…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association of intron 1 and exon 1 polymorphisms in the estrogen receptor alpha gene (ER-alpha) with endometriosis in women. DESIGN: Association study. SETTING: Endometriosis Unit, Federal University of São Paul…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate p27 protein expression in the endometrium of women with endometriosis. DESIGN: Transversal case-control study. SETTING: Endometriosis Unit, Federal University of São Paulo, Brazil. PATIENT(S): Thirteen patients wit…

We designed the present study in order to evaluate the eventual role of polymorphisms in the genes encoding cytochrome P450c17alpha (CYP17) and the progesterone receptor (PROGINS) as risk factors for endometriosis development. Eligible case…

To study possible correlation between the prevalence of polymorphisms in the type I interleukin-1 receptor gene and pelvic endometriosis. Genotypes of 223 women were analyzed: 109 women with surgically and histologically confirmed endometri…

OBJECTIVE: To present a technique for immediate umbilical reconstruction in women undergoing resection of umbilical endometriosis. METHODS: Umbilical reconstruction using 2 semicircular defatted skin flaps was performed in 7 patients surgi…

OBJETIVO: o objetivo do estudo foi verificar a prevalência do polimorfismo denominado PROGINS no gene do receptor de progesterona entre mulheres com endometriose em seus diferentes estádios. MÉTODOS: estudo caso-controle desenvolvido entre …

This study aimed to verify whether estrogen replacement alone or associated with progesterone promotes the recurrence of experimental endometriosis in oophorectomized rats. The procedure utilized for endometriosis induction was adapted from…

Objetivo: divulgar a metodologia da indução de endometriose experimental em animais de laboratório. Método: utilizamos ratas albinas, virgens, adultas de aproximadamente três meses de idade, que foram inicialmente anestesiadas pelo éter etí…
