Neonatal uterine bleeding (NUB) has been hypothesized as a relatively common early-life event potentially linked to the later development of endometriosis through retrograde menstruation. However, its true prevalence and biological …
Endometriosis, particularly ovarian endometrioma, is associated with a 2-fold increased risk of ovarian cancer (OC), especially the clear cell and endometrioid subtypes. However, the absolute lifetime risk of OC in …
Angiogenesis mediated by vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) is essential for physiological vascular remodeling but also drives pathological processes, including tumor growth, ocular neovascularization, and inflammation. Emerging evidence has …
We present a case of extrapelvic endometriosis of Bartholin's gland in a healthy 40-year-old woman with two deliveries. After the last delivery 10 years ago, she had cyclical pain with …
The dynamics of peritoneal fluid has vital applications in various physiological functions, particularly in female reproductive physiology, which modulates the transport of gametes within the fallopian tubes. This research aims …
To critically evaluate the evidence linking endometriosis to ovarian cancer, with particular focus on endometrioid and clear cell histologic subtypes, and to inform risk stratification and patient counseling.
The link between endometriosis and other medical conditions is gaining attention. Such insights could enhance clinical approaches to manage the disease and potentially reveal new, unrecognized mechanisms of its development. …
The human endometrium is a complex, dynamic and poorly understood tissue involving monthly cyclical regeneration likely from adult stem/progenitor cells. This regeneration is associated with reproductive pathologies, such as endometriosis …
