To assess the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound using the sliding sign for detecting pelvic adhesions and its correlation with operative time in laparoscopic surgery for benign gynecologic conditions.
Background: Endometriosis is a complex condition that impairs women's quality of life and reproductive potential. Its diagnosis remains significant challenge for clinicians. The aim of the study was to investigate …
Endometriosis is a heterogeneous chronic inflammatory disorder associated with substantial diagnostic delay and limited therapeutic options, highlighting the need of robust non-invasive biomarkers and actionable molecular targets to complement existing …
The origin of ectopic gynecologic lesions has been debated since 1927, when Sampson first proposed retrograde menstruation as the underlying cause of endometriosis. Reproduction in mammals is an unusually permissive …
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Despite several existing theories, the etiology and molecular mechanisms of endometriosis remain to be investigated. Here we report …
Endometriosis can impair natural reproduction through multiple mechanisms, including distortion of pelvic anatomy and chronic peritoneal inflammation. On this basis, surgical treatment might be reasonably expected to benefit. However, clinical …
C-kit, E-cadherin and beta-catenin adhesion molecules and proto-oncogenes are thought to be associated with molecular mechanisms related to the invasion, implantation and persistence of ectopic endometrial cells. Comparing the expression …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease with frequent recurrence. Statins, due to their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, may help control disease progression, but comparative data on local administration are limited. …
Endometriosis is a disease characterized by fibrosis and adhesions. There are still no treatment methods targeting these conditions. One reason for this is the lack of useful animal models to …
Female infertility is a complex health concern with a multitude of risk factors and aetiologies. This current narrative review was planned to highlight the various significant contributors to female infertility, …
