Abstract

(Abstracted from Fertil Steril 2019;112:707–717) Chronic endometriosis (CE), a state of chronic inflammation in the endometrial lining, has been associated with reproductive failure and is diagnosed based on the presence of CD138+ plasma cells. There is wide variance in CE among infertile women (ranging from 2.8% to 57%) and a lack of consensus on the diagnostic criteria.
