Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare pulmonary disorder characterized by impaired surfactant clearance due to alveolar macrophage dysfunction. Leuprorelin acetate, a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, is widely used in the …
Ureteral endometriosis is a rare form of urinary tract endometriosis that may cause silent ureteral obstruction and irreversible renal damage. Mixed intrinsic and extrinsic ureteral involvement is uncommon, and right-sided …
Ultrasound-guided transvaginal ethanol sclerotherapy belongs to one of the minimally invasive methods for endometrioma management. Nevertheless, some reports suggested a possible link between the method and the presence of pelvic …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory and estrogen-dependent disease in which oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, and lesion-supportive microenvironmental signaling contribute to lesion development. N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a glutathione-replenishing and redox-modulating agent, has …
We aim to elucidate the impact of endometriomas on oocyte developmental competence and identify genetic alterations that may influence ICSI success rates in women of different ages.
• Surgical outcomes in endometriosis vary substantially according to disease phenotype, symptom profile, and reproductive priorities. • Excisional surgery for ovarian endometriomas is associated with lower recurrence rates but carries …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects around 10% of women of reproductive age and is frequently associated with infertility. Despite its high prevalence in assisted reproductive technology (ART) …
The etiopathogenesis of endometriosis-related infertility remains under investigation, including in women with endometriomas. Oocyte quality is believed to play an important role in the impairment of natural fertility in these …
Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease. Although several studies have suggested a key role for estrogen receptor ERβ in EMS lesion development, its detection has been challenged by …
The aim of this review was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ethanol sclerotherapy (EST) for ovarian endometriomas, regarding the risk of recurrence, impact on ovarian reserve, and comparison …
