Background and Objectives: Endometriosis is associated with chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, oestrogen-dependent growth, oxidative stress, altered steroid hormone metabolism, compromised epithelial barrier integrity, and the production of bioactive microbial metabolites. …
Peritoneal adhesions are a major and often under-recognized cause of morbidity following abdominopelvic inflammation and surgery, contributing to chronic pelvic pain, infertility, bowel obstruction, and surgical complications. Endometriosis, affecting 10-11% …
Intestinal endometriosis is a benign gynecological condition that frequently involves the rectosigmoid colon. Its synchronous occurrence with colorectal cancer is exceptionally rare and diagnostically challenging, particularly when mimicking a second …
Women with endometriosis experience chronic cyclic pelvic pain (CCPP) or chronic persistent pelvic pain (CPPP), both of which may be incapacitating even after treatment. Emotional dysregulation in endometriosis impedes patient …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory and estrogen-dependent disease in which pain remains the leading cause of impaired quality of life. Hormonal therapies constitute the cornerstone of medical management and include …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic gynecological disease with poorly understood pathogenesis. This study integrated lipidomics and transcriptomics to systematically investigate aberrant sphingolipid metabolism in EMs, aiming to identify pathogenic mechanisms …
Ovarian endometriomas are commonly assessed according to cyst size and laterality, anatomical features that have long been regarded as indicators of disease severity and potential ovarian compromise. Consequently, these characteristics …
Endometriosis affects ∼10% of women of reproductive age. Emerging evidence suggests a link between endometriosis and systemic inflammation, potentially increasing the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), yet data on the …
Endometriosis (EMS) is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting 10% of reproductive-age women, with up to 50% experiencing infertility. As primary care providers (PCPs) are often the first point of care, …
Gossypiboma, the unintentional retention of surgical materials, is a rare but significant postoperative complication. While most of the literature focuses on retained sponges, absorbable hemostatic agents such as Surgicel may …
