OBJECTIVES: The objective of the study was to evaluate the impact of male human papillomavirus (HPV) sexually transmitted infection on sperm parameters, embryo morphokinetics, and clinical pregnancy outcomes in assisted reproductive technol…

INTRODUCTION: Poor ovarian response (POR) remains a major limitation in assisted reproductive medicine. Direct comparisons between r-hFSH alfa + r-LH and r-hFSH delta + hMG in this population are scarce. METHODS: This retrospective study i…

OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to evaluate the utility and safety of ancillary maneuvers during oocyte retrieval for patients with endometrioma that makes ovum pick-up hard due to poor ovarian surgical accessibility. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Case…

Oocyte-cumulus cell interaction is essential for oocyte maturation and competence. The bidirectional crosstalk network mediated by gap junctions is fundamental for the metabolic cooperation between these cells. As cumulus cells exhibit a mo…

Genetic anomalies in oocyte maturation present significant fertility and embryonic development challenges. This review explores the intricate mechanisms of nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation, emphasizing the genetic and molecular factors co…

Isthmocele is a gynecological condition characterized by a disruption in the uterine scar, often associated with prior cesarean sections. This anatomical anomaly can be attributed to inadequate or insufficient healing of the uterine wall fo…

In eutocic labor, the autonomic nervous system is dominated by the parasympathetic system, which ensures optimal blood flow to the uterus and placenta. This study is focused on the detection of the quantitative presence of catecholamine (C)…

OBJECTIVES: The safety of cesarean myomectomy has been proven by previous studies. Our study aimed to reveal the long-term perinatal, obstetric, and surgical outcomes of cesarean myomectomy (CM) by comparing different CM techniques. MATERI…

PURPOSE: The study aims to demonstrate the effects of Vitamin D (VD) supplementation, prior to oocyte pick-up within IVF protocols, in women with diverse VD status at the enrollment. METHODS: A total of 204 women eligible for intra-cytopla…

Follitropin delta (Δ) is a recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH), like natural human FSH, that can stimulate the development and growth of multiple follicles. Treatment with Follitropin-Δ may cause mild to severe adverse rea…

Fertility preservation (FP) is becoming a critical issue in transgender men who desire biological offspring in the future. The prevalence of transgender individuals in the United States is increasing, and as a result, the demand for gender-…

To evaluate the expression of genes encoding cytokines, grow factors and cell cycle regulators in the proliferative endometrium of women with chronic endometritis (CE) compared to controls. We performed a case-control study on seven women w…

Authors evaluated the impact of laparoscopic intracapsular myomectomy (LIM) in women 40 years of age and over with desire of future fertility compared with medical management of symptomatic fibroids, by a prospective cohort study in Univers…

Background: In this article, we have reviewed available data on the frequency of endometriosis considering separately the incidence and the prevalence of the disease using data from papers published from 2000 to June 2019. Study design: Sys…

BACKGROUNDS AND AIMS: This study aims to compare hysteroscopic and histological findings in asymptomatic postmenopausal patients with thickened endometrium. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective study involving case records of 295 asympto…

BACKGROUND: Unilateral twin tubal pregnancy is an extremely rare condition, occurring in 1/20.000-250.000 pregnancies and represents a major health risk for reproductive-aged women, leading to even life-threatening complications. AIM: We p…

Tailgut cysts, also called retrorectal cystic hamartomas, are rare findings that usually occur in the retrorectal space. The incidence is estimated to be about 1 in 40,000. The aim of our review is to evaluate the potential pitfalls in the …

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between endometriosis end chronic endometritis (CE) diagnosed by hysteroscopy, conventional histology, and immunohistochemistry. DESIGN: Case-control study. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S):…

Determining the primary site of uterine adenocarcinoma (ADC) may be problematic, especially with small specimens. This is particularly important in light of the increase of endocervical and endometrial adenocarcinoma and the decrease in inc…
