Deep infiltrative endometriosis involving the bowel is a complex disease in which the optimal minimally invasive surgical approach remains uncertain, particularly regarding long-term fertility, recurrence, and healthcare utilization. We conducted …
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 …
Longitudinal studies suggest that diets encouraging higher intake of fruits and vegetables and lower intake of red meat are associated with a lower risk of laparoscopically-confirmed endometriosis. However, no studies …
Ureteral endometriosis is a rare form of urinary tract endometriosis that may cause silent ureteral obstruction and irreversible renal damage. Mixed intrinsic and extrinsic ureteral involvement is uncommon, and right-sided …

Postoperative pain following laparoscopic surgery can delay recovery and increase opioid use. Lower insufflation pressures have been consistently shown to reduce pain in general surgery procedures, but their impact in …
In patients with colorectal endometriosis the optimal surgical approach for excising disease remains unknown.
Women with endometriosis are at increased risk of severe postoperative pain due to nociceptive sensitization. While multimodal analgesia reduces opioid use, the added value of objective nociception monitoring remains unclear. …
