Adolescent-onset endometriosis is increasingly recognized as a distinct clinical challenge. It often requires years to achieve a diagnosis, leading to prolonged physical and psychological distress and significantly impairing quality of …
Lipedema is a chronic, progressive disorder marked by the abnormal accumulation of subcutaneous adipose tissue, predominantly in the lower body and almost exclusively affecting women. In recent years, the off-label …
Endometriosis increases ovarian cancer (OC) risk through genetic mutations, chronic inflammation, and hormonal dysregulation, yet the underlying molecular pathways remain underexplored. This study aims to identify endometriosis-associated prognostic biomarkers in …
Endometriosis, a chronic oestrogen-dependent disorder, presents significant clinical challenges including pelvic pain, dysmenorrhoea, dyspareunia and infertility. While numerous interventions exist, evidence guiding the choice among surgical, hormonal and non-hormonal therapies …
Endometriosis involves oestrogen-dependent chronic inflammation and the abnormal proliferation of ectopic endometrial tissue. Conventional hormonal therapies suppress systemic oestrogen, but do not fully address local oxidative and inflammatory signalling. This …
To identify risk factors that predict the persistence of noncyclical pelvic pain in patients with endometriosis despite receiving hormone therapy.
Elagolix (ELA) 200 mg twice daily is an oral treatment approved for moderate-to-severe endometriosis-associated pain. However, the clinical use of ELA is limited by potential hypoestrogenic effects, including the loss …
Objectives: To evaluate the impact of hormonal therapy on the evolution of painful symptoms in premenopausal women with adenomyosis, with or without concomitant endometriosis, over an 18-month follow-up period. This …
Biomaterials for drug delivery offer significant advantages over conventional medications, including enhanced cellular uptake, improved drug stability, targeted delivery, and controlled drug release. Cutting-edge nanodrugs delivery approaches such as drugs …
Catamenial pneumothorax (CP) is a rare form of spontaneous pneumothorax associated with thoracic endometriosis. We report a case of CP with histologically proven diaphragmatic endometriosis successfully managed by combined surgical …
