There is a higher density of immune cells in peritoneal fluid than is found in blood. Thus, any perturbations, from sterile injury to endometriosis to ovarian cancer, require immune cells …
The objective of this work was to compare the perioperative safety and operative efficacy of robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) versus conventional laparoscopy surgery (CLS) in women with symptomatic colorectal endometriosis, with …
Endometriosis is one of the most common causes of chronic pelvic or lower-abdominal pain, yet mechanisms, predictors, and patient-centered treatment pathways remain insufficiently defined. This article summarizes the situation in …
Salmonella-induced tubo-ovarian abscesses (TOAs) in patients with ovarian endometriomas and coexisting adenomyosis are rare and surgically challenging due to dense adhesions. We report a woman in her late 30s presenting …
Endometriosis is associated with chronic pelvic pain, largely due to immune dysregulation within the peritoneal cavity. The activation status of peritoneal immune cells is not well understood, and comparisons with …
Yiqi Huoxue Formula (YQHXF) is an 11-herb hospital-based traditional Chinese medicinal formula developed according to the therapeutic principle of tonifying qi and activating blood circulation. Previous clinical application has suggested …
Endometriosis is a common complex gynecological condition that is difficult to efficiently diagnose and remains poorly understood. Menstrual fluid provides a non-invasive source of disease-relevant tissue and has been identified …
A growing body of evidence suggests that women with endometriosis and adenomyosis are at an increased risk of complications during pregnancy and childbirth. Many of these complications are associated with …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a prevalent gynecological disorder affecting reproductive-age women. Exosomes secreted by peripheral blood macrophages may participate in EMs progression. In this pilot translational study, exosomes from peripheral blood …
Apoptosis plays a paramount role in endometriosis pathogenesis. This process may be disrupted in endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) of women with endometriosis, causing them to continue developing in ectopic locations. …
