Background/Objectives: Endometriosis manifests as ectopic endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. This lesion can sometimes appear at unusual anatomical sites or within the intestinal tract, growing and mimicking cancer. Such …
Presence of embryo-derived cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in spent culture medium (SCM) represents a promising non-invasive alternative to the conventional preimplantation genetic testing (PGT). The present study evaluated the feasibility of …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic inflammatory disease defined by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. Ovarian EMS is considered the most prevalent disease phenotype. However, the causal …
Our objective was to compare the severity of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in hospitalized women with and without endometriosis, and to assess whether deep endometriosis is associated with worse clinical …
Longitudinal studies suggest that diets encouraging higher intake of fruits and vegetables and lower intake of red meat are associated with a lower risk of laparoscopically-confirmed endometriosis. However, no studies …
Endometriosis is a chronic, heterogenous disorder in which cyclical hemorrhage and repetitive repair generate ectopic implants that persist, recur, and drive pain and infertility; conventional frameworks emphasizing hormonal aberration and …
The management of endometriomata remains a challenge, with current options associated with either high recurrence rates or significant reduction in ovarian reserve. Ethanol sclerotherapy has been suggested as a treatment …
Endometriosis may rarely present with atypical manifestations that closely mimic intra-abdominal malignancy or severe pelvic sepsis, resulting in significant diagnostic uncertainty. We present two contrasting cases of presumed severe endometriosis …
Deep endometriosis (DE) involving the bowel presents a complex management challenge. While surgery is often emphasized, limited evidence exists on long-term outcomes of conservative (non-surgical) management. This study aimed to …
This matched comparative study investigates whether unoperated ovarian endometriomas (OMAs) influence the prevalence of tubal pathology as detected by hysterosalpingography (HSG) in infertile women. A total of 266 infertile women …
