Zusammenfassung Die vorliegende Übersicht fasst die relevanten Aspekte der S2k-Leitlinie Endometriose zusammen. Die Empfehlungen umfassen die Aufarbeitung und Befunderhebung bei Biopsien und Resektaten, die bei der klinischen Diagnose einer…

Downregulated microRNA-142-3p signaling contributes to the pathogenesis of endometriosis [1] [2], an invasive disease where the lining of the uterus grows at ectopic locations, by yet incompletely understood mechanisms. Using bioinformatics…

Abstract Endometriosis is a painful gynaecological condition characterized by ectopic growth of endometrial cells outside of the uterus. Little is known about the mechanisms by which endometrial fragments invade tissues. This is partially d…

INTRODUCTION: Stem cells mediate cyclic regeneration of the endometrium. The upregulated expression of receptors and modulators of the notch signaling pathway in endometriosis suggests an involvement in the pathogenetic process. Here, we in…

PURPOSE: To evaluate normal uterine tissue with special regard to age and the presence of uterine fibroids and adenomyosis with transvaginal elastography. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a prospective study elastographic data of the uterus were o…

PURPOSE: To evaluate the presence of a lesion indicative of endometriosis with transvaginal elastography. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Transvaginal ultrasound and clinical examination were carried out in 48 women with clinical symptoms indicative…

Introduction: Endometriosis is a hormone-dependent disease characterized by growth of endometrial tissue at ectopic locations. Recent results indicate a dysregulation of microRNAs, small non-coding posttransciprional regulators of gene expr…
