Ovarian endometriosis (OEM) is characterised by ectopic endometrial tissue growth within the ovary. In these ectopic lesions, the ectopic epithelium plays a crucial role in OEM progression and has been …
Endometriosis diagnosis is often limited by the resolution of conventional imaging techniques (ultrasound/non-targeted MRI) as well as the invasiveness and recurrence risks associated with laparoscopy. To overcome these challenges, we …
Pneumothorax that occurs during menstruation is called catamenial pneumothorax; however, it is also called thoracic endometriosis-related pneumothorax (TERP) because of its etiology. Because of its high postoperative recurrence rate, TERP …
Objectives: The peritoneal cavity is a cavity outside the bloodstream, with a specific hormonal, immunological and microbiological micro-environment distinct from plasma. The mesothelial cells lining the peritoneal cavity react within …
Transmembrane protein TMEM119 has been implicated in tumor progression (e.g., ovarian cancer), but its role and underlying mechanism in ovarian endometriosis (EM) remain elusive. Thus, this study aimed to investigate …
Endometriosis is known to affect women worldwide, and most commonly involves chronic pelvic pain and infertility. Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is a condition that may involve the bladder, ureter, and …
(1) Background: Endometriosis and chronic endometritis (CE) are pathologies that are positively correlated and have similar paracrine and immunological alterations. This leads us to wonder whether their interrelationship plays a …
Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, yet its molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study investigated the expression of …
Acute abdomen is a common indication to surgery in paediatric emergency departments. Appendicitis is the most frequent diagnosis, followed by bowel obstruction and female genital conditions. Some rare aetiologies may …
To (1) determine how application of the updated international definition of deep endometriosis (DE) alters apparent disease prevalence across pelvic sites, and (2) characterize the distribution of endometriosis phenotypes, including …
