Infertility has become a world-wide public health problem. To identify women in a high-risk of infertility at an early stage when more treatments are available, early risk factors such as …
Background/Objectives: The prognosis of endometriosis-related ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) versus non-endometriosis-associated OCCC remains unclear. We examined the impact of endometriosis on OCCC diagnosis and progression and assessed whether prior …
Certain obstetric and gynaecological diseases are associated with pleural effusion, including benign peripartum pleural effusion, endometriosis, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and Meigs syndrome. This review provides a comprehensive and detailed overview …
Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside of the uterus. It is a benign chronic condition with incapacitating symptoms like infertility and pelvic pain. Endometriosis has a …
