INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a serious health problem among women of reproductive age, with pelvic pain and infertility. Given the limited success of current treatments, this study explores Neroli oil (N.O.) effects on inflammation, oxida…

AIM: To report single-center outcomes of laparoscopic management of patients with ureteral endometriosis and perform a meta-analysis in order to select the best approach for these patients. METHODS: The cross-sectional study was conducted …

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) level and adenomyosis treatment failure (TF) after uterine artery embolization (UAE). METHODS: We evaluated 224 patients with symptomatic adenomyosis who un…

AIM: To compare the therapeutic efficacy of ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (USgHIFU) in the treatment of adenomyosis with different signal intensity (SI) on T2-weighted images (T2WI). METHODS: A total of 299 adenomyosi…

OBJECTIVES: Although in vitro fertilization with embryo transfer is the most effective treatment for infertile patients with endometriosis, ovarian stimulation protocols are controversial. STUDY DESIGN: We recruited 639 patients with endom…

Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) remains a challenging problem in assisted reproductive technology (ART). Further insights into uterine abnormalities that can disturb embryo implantation should be obtained. This review provides an overv…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the pregnancy outcomes and associated influencing factors of pregnancy after hysteroscopy combined with laparoscopy treatment in infertile patients with minimal/mild endometriosis. DESIGN: A retrospective study. SETTI…

BACKGROUND: Endometrial-derived stem cells are key players in endometriosis (EMs) pathogenesis, while the mechanism involved is still unclear. Herein, the role and regulatory mechanism of endometriotic mesenchymal stem cells (ecto-MSCs) in …

BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies reported that patients with endometriosis had an increased risk of developing endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC). The present study aimed to identify shared genes and key pathways that commonl…

AIM: We aimed to investigate the associations of endometriosis and adenomyosis with pregnancy complications by using a large-scale Japanese database. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 145 590 singleton pregnancies from the Japan Perinat…

Endometriosis is a serious, chronic disorder where endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus, causing severe pelvic pain and infertility. It affects 11% of women. Endometriosis is a multifactorial disorder of unclear etiology, although re…

The human endometrium is a dynamically remodeling tissue that undergoes more than 400 cycles of regeneration, differentiation, shedding, and rapid healing during a woman's reproductive years. The endometrium is also the origin of various gy…

Obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal anomaly (OHVIRA) is a rare malformation that not only causes severe menstrual cramps shortly after menarche but can also lead to endometriosis and infection in the future. We report a case of OHVI…

Mesonephric-like carcinoma histologically resembles mesonephric adenocarcinoma (MA) of the cervix. MA arises from mesonephric duct remnants. However, the origin of mesonephric-like carcinoma is not extensively studied because of its rarity.…

AIM: This study aimed to compare introduced robotic-assisted hysterectomy (RAH) and skilled total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) for the treatment of benign gynecological diseases. METHODS: Patients who underwent RAH or TLH by two surgeon…

AIM: The present study aimed to explore the potential ameliorative effects of L-arginine (LA), L-carnitine (LC), and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned medium (BMSC-CM) on endometriosis (EMS) model in vivo and in vitro. METHODS:…

AIM: Endometriosis is a chronic disease of reproductive age, associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Endometriotic cells adapt to changing environments such as oxidative stress and hypoxia in order to survive. However, the underlying m…

AIM: Histopathologic diagnosis of a subset of uterine smooth muscle tumors is challenging. We report a critical review regarding the clinicopathological point of view of 62 cases of subsequently recurred or metastasized leiomyoma. METHODS:…

AIM: To explore the associations between endometriosis and different kinds of allergy-related diseases as well as different specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) allergy. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 1332 female participants ≥20 …

More than 10 years following the publication of "The General Rules for Clinical Management of Endometriosis: The second edition" in January 2010, the long-awaited third edition has arrived. The second edition represents the bible for endome…

AIM: To investigate the distribution of tubal endometriosis (EM) in the right and left sides and four parts of the fallopian tube. METHODS: A retrospective, cross-sectional study was conducted on patients with tubal EM at the Fourth Affili…

Endometriosis can be associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. We report six cases of endometriosis-related spontaneous hemoperitoneum diagnosed in pregnant and postpartum women over 13 years. Spontaneous hemoperitoneum in pregnancy mainl…

AIM: To classify the FIGO's PALM-COEIN etiology for abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) patients according to the ultrasound and histopathology and to evaluate the etiology prevalence distribution for AUB patients. METHODS: A total of 1065 wom…

AIM: Endometriosis is linked to asymptomatic atherosclerosis and increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Vascular function tests are used to assess atherosclerosis, an important indicator of CVD development. In this study, we ai…

BACKGROUND: Adolescent endometriosis is a special type of endometriosis. Its diagnosis is often delayed. This study aimed to share the treatment experience of adolescent endometriosis and analyze the clinical manifestation, clinical stage, …
