Haemorrhagic ascites (HA) is an uncommon clinical entity commonly caused by cirrhosis, malignancy and iatrogenic intervention. In the absence of these causes, it poses a diagnostic challenge. We present a …
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 frequently involves the ovaries. Surgical management of endometriomas traditionally includes cystectomy, electrocoagulation, or ablative techniques. Ethanol sclerotherapy has emerged as a low-cost, time-efficient alternative. When performed laparoscopically, it allows …
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 …
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 …
Impact statement: A legislatively mandated, statewide endometriosis biorepository integrated within a multidisciplinary endometriosis focused program demonstrates how policy-driven infrastructure can integrate education, clinical care, harmonized biobanking, and translational research to …
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 …
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 …
