Abstract

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity and is characterized by recurrent episodes of pelvic pain and dysmenorrhea. The high prevalence of the disease along with its recurrent persistent nature poses a significant burden on the healthcare system of a country. Considering the enormity of the healthcare burden and the impact it has on the quality of life of the patients, here was a need to develop a marker which may help in the definitive diagnosis of this dreadful disease. The aim of this study is to corroborate the histopathological diagnosis of endometriosis with the immunohistochemical staining for CD10 and to find out the diagnostic efficacy of CD10 for endometriosis among clinically diagnosed patients of endometriosis.
