Die zytologische Diagnose der Endometriose im Direktabstrich
This study investigated whether a direct cytological smear could provide microscopic evidence of endometriosis, aiming to avoid misdiagnoses from macroscopic laparoscopic impressions or risky biopsies.

This study investigates whether direct cytological smears can provide a microscopic diagnosis of endometriosis, aiming to avoid the risks associated with biopsies in areas near vital structures like the bowel or ureters. The authors sought to determine if this less invasive method could reliably confirm the ectopic presence of endometrial glands and stroma that typically requires histological verification. The paper explores the potential utility of cytology as an alternative diagnostic tool when surgical biopsy poses significant safety concerns. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically evaluating a cytological method for its diagnosis to complement or replace invasive biopsy procedures.
