Erklärt die peritoneale Innervierung die unterschiedliche Schmerzsymptomatik der peritonealen Endometriose und der Peritonealkarzinose des Ovarialkarzinoms?
This study investigates whether peritoneal innervation explains the differing pain symptomatology between peritoneal endometriosis and ovarian cancer peritoneal carcinosis.

This comparative study investigated the pathogenesis of pain in peritoneal endometriosis and peritoneal carcinomatosis by analyzing nerve fiber density, neurotrophin expression, and estrogen concentrations in peritoneal fluid. The researchers found that while both conditions exhibited elevated NGF levels compared to healthy controls, nerve fiber density was significantly higher in endometriosis patients than in those with ovarian cancer metastases. Additionally, estrogen concentrations were markedly higher in the peritoneal fluid of endometriosis cases, whereas they were low in the carcinoma group, suggesting distinct hormonal influences on sensory nerve sensitization. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically examining how peritoneal innervation and local hormone levels contribute to the characteristic pain symptoms associated with deep infiltrating lesions.
