PURPOSE: To quantify the mRNA levels of MMP-3, MMP-9, VEGF and Survivin in peripheral blood and the serum levels of CA-125 and Ca19-9 in women with and without endometriosis and to investigate the performance of these markers to differentia…
OBJECTIVES: To compare the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal sonography (TVS) and double-contrast barium enema (DCBE) in the preoperative detection of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) of the posterior compartment. METHODS: This was a…
OBJECTIVES: To describe the sonographic and clinical features of abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE), a frequently misdiagnosed condition. METHODS: This was a retrospective study of 21 consecutive women with pathologically proven endometrios…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate surgical outcome and long-term follow-up of conservative laparoscopic management of urinary tract endometriosis (UTE). DESIGN: Prospective study. SETTING: Tertiary-care university hospital. PATIENT(S): Women with l…
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Endometriosis is an invasive disease. Its diagnosis depends on laparoscopy, which is traumatic and associated with potential complications. The aim of this study was to develop a rapid, reliable, and less invasive diagnosti…

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the accuracy and the potential limitations of transvaginal sonography (TVS) in the preoperative evaluation of women with clinically suspected bladder endometriosis and to describe the sonographic features of the path…
ObjectiveTo evaluate postoperative long-term cyclic and continuous administration of combined oral contraceptive (OC) pills in preventing endometriosis-related pain recurrence.DesignProspective, randomized, controlled trial.SettingTertiary …
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis recurrence after conservative surgery is not infrequent. Variable regimens of hormonal therapy have been proposed as adjuvant post-operative measures for prophylaxis against recurrence. Among these, the combined or…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between anatomic locations and diameter of endometriotic lesions with severity of perimenstrual dyschezia (pain with defecation) as a possible location-indicating pain symptom for posterior deep…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To discuss our clinical and surgical experience with 30 cases of ureteral endometriosis. DESIGN: Retrospective analysis (Canadian Task Force classification II-3). SETTING: Tertiary care university hospital. PATIENTS: Rec…
ObjectiveTo evaluate long-term cyclic and continuous administration of oral contraceptive pills (OCP) in preventing ovarian endometrioma recurrence after laparoscopic cystectomy.DesignProspective, randomized, controlled trial.SettingTertiar…
The aim of this study was to assess the long-term outcome of treating severely symptomatic women with deep infiltrating intestinal endometriosis by laparoscopic segmental rectosigmoid resection. Detailed intraoperative and postoperative rec…
