Ectopic endometria in endometriosis showed significantly higher vascular surface area and microvessel density compared to eutopic endometria or normal endometrium.

This paper compared angiogenesis between eutopic and ectopic endometrial tissues from patients with endometriosis, using quantitative color morphometric image system (CMIS) measures of vascular surface area and assessments of microvessel density (MVD) within endometrial blood vessels across menstrual phases. The authors found that within each menstrual phase, ectopic endometria in endometriosis had significantly higher vascular surface area and MVD than eutopic endometria from the same patients and normal endometrium. A key limitation is that the study’s conclusions are based on morphometric indices of angiogenesis, without direct demonstration of causal mechanisms or functional outcomes. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it specifically analyzes angiogenesis differences between eutopic and ectopic endometrial tissues in endometriosis.
