Concurrent Inguinal Endometriosis and Catamenial Pneumothorax: A Case Report.
Endometriosis, while prevalent, can manifest in extra-pelvic locations with varying degrees of rarity, but reports of multiple extra-pelvic sites within a patient are extremely rare. We report a unique case …
Two patients with endometriosis require peripregnancy surgical treatment for pelvic abscesses after egg collection and embryo transfer.
Assisted reproductive technology procedures infrequently cause pelvic abscesses, but the risk is higher in patients with endometriosis. If antibiotic treatment of a pelvic abscess is unsuccessful, surgery is required-even during …
Comparison of vaginal versus intramuscular progesterone in programmed cycles for frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer in patients with endometriosis.
Previous studies have shown that due to the presence of endometrium progesterone resistance in patients with endometriosis, it is considered that higher levels of progesterone may be required to achieve …
Cine-MRI for Quantifying Uterine Peristalsis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Background: Uterine contractility, also known as uterine peristalsis (UP), is a critical determinant of fertility, affecting sperm transport and embryo implantation. Increased uterine peristaltic activity has been associated with reduced …
CD56-Positive NK Cells and CD138-Positive Plasma Cells in Basal Decidua of Term Placentas in Singleton Pregnancies After Assisted Reproductive Technology Treatment of Endometriosis-Related Infertility.
A eutopic endometrium in endometriosis shows altered immune responses, including abnormalities of NK cells and expression of plasma cells, related to reproductive issues. This study investigated the counts of CD56-positive …
