Abstract Background Previous studies have shown the ovarian carcinoma after laparscopic cystectomy of endometrioma arises through the recurrence of endometrioma. Then it can be assumed that reduction of ovarian endometrioma recurrence throu…
The purpose of this study was to establish a novel mouse model of adenomyosis suitable for longitudinal and quantitative analyses and perinatal outcome studies. Using a 30 G needle, the entire uterine wall of one horn was mechanically punct…
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to determine the factors associated with an unfavorable clinical course (emergency surgery and/or prolonged hospitalization) in patients requiring hospitalization owing to pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). MET…
The purpose of this study was to establish a new mouse model of endometriosis that mimics real-world women's health problems, in which women continue to be affected by endometriosis long before they wish to become pregnant, and to evaluate …
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to determine the systemic and local proportions, focal localization, and characteristics of polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells (PMN-MDSCs) in endometriosis. STUDY DESIGN: Peripheral blood and pe…
We present a case of hemorrhagic shock occurred during dienogest therapy for uterine adenomyosis which necessitated an emergency hysterectomy. The patient was a 45-year-old woman with adenomyosis. Magnetic resonance imaging showed type I ad…
BACKGROUND: The recurrence rate after unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (USO) for unilateral endometrioma has not been reported. We evaluated the rate of and risk factors for endometrioma recurrence after USO. METHODS: In this retrospective …
Desmoid tumors, which are often estrogen-dependent, frequently develop in surgical wounds. Here we report the case of 33-year-old woman with a 4-cm solid mass detected in her left adnexal area. She had previously undergone a laparoscopic su…
CONTEXT: The ovarian reserve is reduced in patients with endometriosis. We hypothesize that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) Akt-Forkhead box O (Foxo3) pathway is involv…
Endometriosis is characterized by the implantation and growth of endometriotic tissues outside the uterus. It is widely accepted the theory that endometriosis is caused by the implantation of endometrial tissue from retrograde menstruation;…
OBJECTIVES: To characterize peritoneal dendritic cells (DCs) in endometriosis and to clarify their role in its etiology. DESIGN: Experimental. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): Sixty-three women (35 patients with endometriosis an…
AIM: Our objective was to determine the preoperative factors associated with difficulty in total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). METHODS: This retrospective clinical study included 157 patients who underwent TLH for leiomyoma or adenomyosi…
OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence rate of subsequent development of ovarian cancer after excision of endometrioma. DESIGN: Retrospective cross-sectional study. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): A total of 485 women with endo…
CONTEXT: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent, chronic inflammatory disease. Recent studies have shown that vitamin D (VD) is an effective modulator of the immune system and plays an important role in controlling many inflammatory disease…
PROBLEM: Neutrophils are known to be accumulated in endometriosis; however, direct evidence of the impact of neutrophils in the development of endometriosis was lacking. To clarify the importance of neutrophils, we examined the effect of ne…
