This review describes the influence of immune cells, not primary drivers but significant contributors, in the pathogenesis of endometriosis.

One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works

Abstract

The pathogenic mechanisms which lead to development of endometriosis are still unclear. Despite that the immunological mechanisms are not the primary, there is no doubt that they take a part in pathogenesis of the disease. In current review, the influence of the cells of the immune system which are connected with endometriosis is described.
