Endometriosis is characterized by inflammation and fibrosis, in which cytokines and cytokine-macrophage interactions serve as critical mediators. However, the specific mechanisms that initiate the fibrotic cascade in endometriosis remain poorly …
Recurrent hemorrhagic pleural effusion presents as a challenge for both the clinician and the patient, with common causes being tuberculosis, malignancy, and collagen vascular diseases. Among uncommon causes of recurrent …
This study aimed to investigate whether women with unilateral and bilateral OMA differ in anxiety symptoms, and secondarily in depressive symptoms and sexual dysfunction symptoms, and to evaluate the independent …
Adenomyosis is increasingly recognized in young women and frequently coexists with endometriosis, suggesting shared pathogenic mechanisms. Delayed recognition of symptoms may contribute to disease progression, while discrepancies between preoperative imaging …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder marked by ectopic lesions, chronic pelvic inflammation, and frequent recurrence. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive modality with anti-inflammatory and regenerative potential, …
Background and Objectives: Superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SPE) remains one of the most difficult endometriosis phenotypes to diagnose non-invasively, because lesions are frequently small, multifocal, and poorly detectable using conventional imaging. …
and Hypothesis: Endometriosis often causes pelvic pain, limiting movement and physical function. Performance-based tests are fundamental to measure functional status among these women. This study aimed to evaluate the reliability …
To investigate whether the etiology of diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) independently influences outcomes of assisted reproductive technology (ART).
Uterine artery embolization (UAE) is a minimally invasive therapeutic option for adenomyosis (AM). However, its clinical effectiveness in patients with comorbid gynecologic disorders remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate …
To investigate, using transvaginal ultrasound imaging, the overlap between polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM) and endometriosis, and to explore demographic and clinical factors associated with their coexistence across endometriosis phenotypes.
