OBJECTIVE: To compare assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) outcomes between fresh vs. freeze-all strategies in infertile women affected by adenomyosis. DESIGN: A single-center observational study. SETTINGS: University hospital-based …
OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the intraoperative use of three-dimensional (3D) imaging reconstruction for a complex case of multiple myomectomy assigned to robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery. DESIGN: Stepwise demonstration of the technique wi…
OBJECTIVE: To discuss the steps to performing and interpreting ultrasound imaging for pelvic pain in women with suspicions of endometriosis. DESIGN: Educational video. SETTING: Specialized gynecologic ultrasound clinic. PATIENTS: Reprodu…
Currently, hormonal drugs are the mainstay for treating endometriosis or adenomyosis. Aside from staying within the "therapeutic window" and cutting off the hormonal support to the ectopic endometrium, none of these treatments were develope…
OBJECTIVES: To assess the ability of physical examination (PE), transvaginal ultrasonography (TVUS), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) alone and combined to diagnose deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). DESIGN: We retrospectively quer…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prevalence on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of ovarian endometrioma (OMA) and deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) in adolescents presenting with severe dysmenorrhea. DESIGN: Prospective study. SETTING: Clin…
OBJECTIVE: To better understand the physiology of pain in pelvic pain pathological conditions, such as endometriosis, in which alterations of uterine innervation have been highlighted, we performed an anatomic and functional mapping of the …
OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the laparoscopic excision of an accessory cavitated uterine mass (ACUM) and show that atypical anomalies can lead to the misdiagnosis of a noncommunicating rudimentary horn. DESIGN: Description and step-by-step de…
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment adds obstetric and neonatal risks over and above that of underlying infertility-related diagnoses. DESIGN: Retrospective study of linked ART, birth certificat…
OBJECTIVE: To determine if women with endometriosis experience lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs) more often than those without. DESIGN: Cross-sectional analysis at enrollment in a longitudinal cohort. SETTING: Enrollment at 2 academic …
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association of infertility with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) among postmenopausal participants in the Women's Health Initiative (WHI). We hypothesized that nulliparity and pregnancy loss may r…
OBJECTIVE: To propose a stepwise approach to robotic diffuse adenomyosis resection with double flap and concomitant abdominal cerclage. DESIGN: A narrated video footage of the surgical approach of a clinical case with extensive adenomyosis…
OBJECTIVE: To define specific risk factors for placenta previa in pregnancies conceived with assisted reproductive technology (ART). DESIGN: Retrospective cohort. SETTING: Fertility centers and inpatient obstetric units in Massachusetts. …
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the associations of caffeinated, alcoholic, and sweetened beverage intakes with antral follicle count (AFC), a well-accepted biomarker of ovarian reserve. DESIGN: Observational prospective cohort study. SETTING: Fer…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the variability in metabolomes between the serum and follicular fluid, as well as across 3 dominant follicles. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING: An academic fertility clinic in the northeastern United States…
