Considerable costs are associated with infertility treatment, but little evidence is available on the main drivers of treatment costs. This cost analysis investigated key costs for treatment with assisted reproductive technology (ART) and t…
Endometriosis is a common problem affecting 5-10% of women of childbearing age. It is a condition with unknown pathology, leaving us with several theories. However, about half of women with endometriosis complain of difficulty conceiving. T…
(Abstracted from Hum Reprod 2021;36:2676–2686) Although the adverse effect of endometriosis on pregnancy rate is well established, the impact of endometriosis on pregnancy rate after treatment with assisted reproductive technology (ART) rem…
STUDY QUESTION: Can the Endometriosis Fertility Index (EFI) be estimated accurately before surgery? SUMMARY ANSWER: The EFI can be estimated accurately based on mere clinical/ultrasound information, with some improvement after adding data f…
STUDY QUESTION: Can plasma miRNAs be used for the non-invasive diagnosis of endometriosis in infertile women? SUMMARY ANSWER: miRNA-based diagnostic models for endometriosis failed the test of independent validation. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: …
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the reproducibility of the Endometriosis Fertility Index (EFI). DESIGN: Single-cohort prospective observational study. SETTING: University hospital. POPULATION: Women undergoing laparoscopic resection of any rASRM-sta…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the value of using one-stop magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) vs standard radiological imaging as a supplement to transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS) for the preoperative assessment of patients with endometriosis referre…
The core definition of endometriosis is when endometrial glands and stoma are identified outside the uterine cavity. It is estimated to affect 2-10% of women in their reproductive age, and 50% of patients complain of infertility. Ovarian en…
STUDY QUESTION: Which essential items should be recorded before, during and after endometriosis surgery and in clinical outcome based surgical trials in patients with deep endometriosis (DE)? SUMMARY ANSWER: A DE surgical sheet (DESS) was …

AIM: Laparoscopic colorectal resection results in improved cosmetic outcome and better presumed body image. Laparoscopic NOSE colectomy omits an incision for specimen extraction and is supposed to further improve postoperative cosmesis. Thi…
The MUSA (Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment) statement is a consensus statement on terms, definitions and measurements that may be used to describe and report the sonographic features of the myometrium using gray-scale sonography,…
STUDY QUESTION: What is the optimal management of women with endometriosis based on the best available evidence in the literature? SUMMARY ANSWER: Using the structured methodology of the Manual for ESHRE Guideline Development, 83 recommend…
STUDY QUESTION: Is there a global consensus on the management of endometriosis that considers the views of women with endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: It was possible to produce an international consensus statement on the current management o…
STUDY QUESTION: Is there a difference between women with endometriosis who underwent laparoscopic surgery with bowel resection or without bowel resection regarding depressive symptoms, relational adjustment and sexual functioning? SUMMARY A…
STUDY QUESTION: Can the ability of the endometriosis fertility index (EFI) to predict non-assisted reproductive technology (ART) pregnancy after endometriosis surgery be confirmed by an external validation study? SUMMARY ANSWER: The signif…
Endometriosis can be considered as a chronic disease which is characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrium outside the endometrial cavity and which is associated with symptoms as pelvic pain and infertility. Medical treatment is oft…
BACKGROUND: De novo somatic copy number aberrations (SCNAs) in eutopic and ectopic endometria are thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. In this study we used, for the first time, high-density single nucleotide polymor…
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic segmental bowel resection and reanastomosis for endometriosis with colorectal wall invasion can be associated with high complication rates. This study was performed to test the hypothesis that this high complication…
BACKGROUND: Multidisciplinary laparoscopic treatment is the standard of care for radical treatment of deep infiltrating pelvic endometriosis. If bowel resection is necessary, a muscle-split or Pfannenstiel incision is also required. The avo…
