Background: Polypoid endometriosis is a rare variant of endometriosis that presents as a tumorous mass, making it difficult to differentiate it from a malignant tumor. It usually occurs in perimenopausal …
A 44-year-old woman with biopsy-proven endometriosis underwent 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT. MRI revealed bilateral ovarian endometriomas, uterine adenomyosis, and deep pelvic endometriotic lesions. FAPI PET/CT demonstrated concordant uptake in deep infiltrating lesions …
Endometriosis-associated pain has debilitating effects on the quality of life of patients. Despite its high prevalence in reproductive-aged women, the pathophysiology is still unknown, impeding the development of targeted treatment …
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecologic disease of reproductive-age women, causing menstrual pain and infertility. Endocrine and inflammatory mechanisms drive its development, with estrogen/progesterone imbalance contributing to extrauterine implantation and persistence …
Endometriosis is a complex and challenging medical condition characterized by endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. MRI plays a crucial role in characterizing lesions and assessing disease. Radiologists must be …
Uterine mesothelial cysts (UMCs) are rare, benign lesions that arise from the mesothelial lining of the uterus and are only sporadically documented in the literature. Because of their extremely low …
Endometriosis (EM) is a gynecological disease where endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus. Current diagnostic methods are mainly through surgical visualization with histological verification; there's a need for noninvasive approaches. …
