Endometriosis is estimated to affect 5%-10% of women of reproductive age, making timely diagnosis essential for initiating treatment, alleviating symptoms, and reducing the risk of disease progression. Unfortunately, the diagnostic delay in…

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare surgical outcomes of two laparoscopic techniques for bowel endometriosis and determine the optimal laparoscopic segmental resection technique with mesentery preservation. MATERIALS AND METHOD…

BACKGROUND: Uterine adenomyosis involves the growth of endometrial gland and stroma within the uterine musculature. Patients with uterine adenomyosis experience heavy painful periods, deep dyspareunia and subfertility, reducing their overal…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate central arterial stiffness, endothelial function, and circulating vascular biomarkers in women with ovarian endometriosis and to explore their associations compared with age-matched controls. METHODS: This cross-sect…

OBJECTIVE: Evaluation of retrospective outcomes of NovaSure treatment in patients with abnormal uterine bleeding, including safety and cost-effectiveness, and risk factors related to therapeutic outcomes. Subgroup analysis was conducted for…

In this report, we describe two cases of diaphragmatic endometriosis with concurrent hepatorenal recess peritoneal involvement managed using robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery with the da Vinci Xi platform. In both patients, diaphragmati…

Spontaneous uterine rupture in an unscarred uterus is a rare but life-threatening obstetric emergency, and endometriosis has increasingly been recognized as a potential risk factor. We report a 33-year-old primigravid woman with primary inf…

Uterine rupture is an infrequent yet sometimes fatal complication of a subsequent vaginal birth attempt following a previous uterine surgery. We have chosen to write about spontaneous uterine ruptures following myomectomy due to the scarcit…

OBJECTIVE: The prevalence of steatotic liver disease (SLD) is increasing globally. Endometriosis, affecting up to 10% of women, is a major cause of infertility. While associations between endometriosis and metabolic syndrome have been repor…

OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) protocol on follicular synchrony in a subsequent in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle in patients whose previous cycle was canceled due to asynchrony. METHODS: A single…

OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to investigate familial transmission patterns in women with endometriosis by generating a customized single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array. METHODS: Patients aged 18-45 who were diagnosed histopathologically…

The WHO 'Guideline for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of infertility' heralds a significant global shift towards recognizing infertility as a medical condition requiring prevention, diagnosis, treatment and policy support. This rec…

OBJECTIVE: To describe the anatomical distribution and laterality patterns of ovarian endometriosis (OE) and deep endometriosis (DE) using TVS and the #Enzian classification, and to evaluate the association between lesion location and the c…

Adenomyosis is an estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by substantial heterogeneity in lesion distribution, symptom presentation, disease severity, and reproductive impact, which limits the effectiveness of uniform treatment strategies…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of hysteroscopic endomyometrial biopsy using Spirotome,complemented by transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), for diagnosis of adenomyosis in patients with abnorma…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the presence of gynecologic pathologies accompanying adenomyosis among the hysterectomy specimens performed for various gynecologic indications. METHODS: This multicenter retrospective cohort study included women who…

OBJECTIVE: Dyspareunia can severely impact the quality of life of patients with endometriosis. This symptom is often linked to a specific form of deep infiltrating endometriosis, such as rectovaginal septum endometriosis. Despite the radica…

OBJECTIVE: Previous studies found younger age was associated with an increased risk of hysterectomy after hysteroscopic surgeries (HS) due to abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of age on the inci…

To investigate the risk factors influencing very early preterm and early preterm births in twin pregnancies after in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). This retrospective study analyzed 2042 twin pregnanc…

Abdominal wall scar endometriosis (AWE) is a rare endometriosis that usually occurs after gynecological or obstetric surgery and for which surgical resection is the standard treatment. For large tissue defects after resection, abdominal wal…
