To evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of vaginal ethanol sclerotherapy (EST) for ovarian endometriomas, with a focus on recurrence and subsequent fertility outcomes.
How do unoperated ovarian endometriomas affect ovarian response during ovarian stimulation cycles?
While endometriosis is thought to be a heterogeneous disease, the pathophysiologic heterogeneity across the three visualized lesion macrophenotypes (i.e., superficial peritoneal endometriosis(SPE) lesions, endometriomas, and deep lesions) remains unclear.
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 …
To assess whether specific markers of oxidative stress and DNA damage are expressed at higher levels in primordial follicles of patients with endometriomas compared to age-matched controls.
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 …
Decidualized ovarian endometriomas are benign lesions that can closely mimic ovarian malignancy on ultrasound. Correctly identifying them is crucial to avoid unnecessary interventions and associated adverse fetal-maternal outcomes. A systematic …
This case report examines the association between autoimmune thyroid disease, more commonly known as Graves' disease, and endometriosis with a focus on the complication of an endometrioma rupture. The interplay …
Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological condition affecting up to 25-40% of women with infertility. Endoferin, a protein complex derived from the bovine ovarian follicles, has demonstrated high efficacy in clinical …
Decidual changes in deep pelvic endometriosis (DPE) are extremely rare. During pregnancy, endometriotic activity and symptoms diminish due to hormonal changes, whereas the endometrial lining undergoes decidualization in response to …
