Endometriosis, particularly ovarian endometrioma, is associated with a 2-fold increased risk of ovarian cancer (OC), especially the clear cell and endometrioid subtypes. However, the absolute lifetime risk of OC in …
To describe the longitudinal ultrasound features and clinical course of ovarian endometriomas in postmenopausal women, aiming to improve diagnostic accuracy and guide follow-up strategies.
This case-control study investigated whether ovarian endometriosis is associated with altered estrogen metabolism and gut or urogenital microbiota by analyzing enzyme activity, bacterial composition, and variations of estrogen metabolites in …
To demonstrate the step-by-step technique for performing a transabdominal oocyte retrieval (TAOR) with a vaginal transducer in patients where transvaginal access is not an option.
This study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of robotic single-port transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (RSP-vNOTES) compared with robotic Xi-assisted single-incision transumbilical surgery (RXi-SITS) for hysterectomy.
Vaginal DNA Assay Shows Promise Conexiant
Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting ~10% of reproductive-age women, with increasing evidence implicating the microbiome in its pathogenesis through immunomodulation and estrogen metabolism. This study investigated microbiome …
The impact of endometrioma size on ovarian reserve remains controversial. Although endometriomas are known to reduce anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels, some studies suggest a paradoxical association between larger cysts and …
Around 18% to 33% of couples with infertility present with tubal occlusion (blocked or damaged fallopian tubes) or hydrosalpinx (fluid-filled tubes). Diagnostic laparoscopy (keyhole surgery) with chromopertubation (methylene blue dye …
