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% …
In women with uterine adenomyosis, bleeding and pain can have a major impact on quality of life. There is clearly widespread demand for effective long-term medical therapies. The objective of …
Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome, also referred to as obstructed hemivagina with ipsilateral renal agenesis (OHVIRA) is a rare congenital urogenital anomaly resulting from abnormal development of the Müllerian and Wolffian ducts, classically …
Introduction. Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in which monocytes/macrophages play a key pathogenetic role. The peritoneal fluid (PF) cytokine profile can modulate recruited monocyte functions, determining their contribution to …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent disease characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. Its pathogenesis involves interactions between inflammatory, angiogenic, hormonal, oxidative stress-related, and cell survival-associated …
Endometriosis is a chronic, oestrogen-responsive inflammatory disease characterised by endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. Because retrograde menstruation is common, lesion establishment probably requires cellular competence and a permissive ectopic …
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality globally. Emerging evidence indicates that cardiovascular risk in women is frequently underestimated, underscoring the importance of recognizing sex-specific contributors. Endometriosis is …
Ovarian endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by extensive tissue remodeling and fibrosis, which significantly impacts female reproductive health. This study demonstrates that ectopic endometrium (Ect) in patients with …
Daughters of women with endometriosis are known to be at increased risk of developing this disease. Using a mouse model, we demonstrate uterine dysfunction reminiscent of endometriosis patients can also …
Endometriosis is a systemic inflammatory disease in which immune dysregulation and oxidative stress contribute to pain and impaired quality of life. This study aimed to examine whether antioxidant and inflammatory …
