Emerging evidence suggests microbial dysbiosis may contribute to gynaecological pathologies, including endometriosis and recurrent implantation failure (RIF). The vaginal microbiome is well-characterised, with Lactobacillus-dominance as a hallmark of health, yet …
Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) is a well-established tumour marker primarily associated with pancreaticobiliary and gastrointestinal malignancies. Its elevation in benign gynaecological conditions, particularly in isolated ovarian endometriosis (OE) without malignancy, …
The objective of this work was to compare the perioperative safety and operative efficacy of robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) versus conventional laparoscopy surgery (CLS) in women with symptomatic colorectal endometriosis, with …
This Correspondence is a formal response to the Comment by Dr. Machado regarding our publication "Creatine Promotes Endometriosis by Inducing Ferroptosis Resistance via Suppression of PrP." We address several conceptual …
Identification and preservation of pelvic autonomic nerves is essential for preventing postoperative functional disorders during surgery for deep endometriosis (DE); however, nerve-sparing surgery in patients with severe fibrosis and cul-de-sac …
Endometriosis is one of the most common causes of chronic pelvic or lower-abdominal pain, yet mechanisms, predictors, and patient-centered treatment pathways remain insufficiently defined. This article summarizes the situation in …
Salmonella-induced tubo-ovarian abscesses (TOAs) in patients with ovarian endometriomas and coexisting adenomyosis are rare and surgically challenging due to dense adhesions. We report a woman in her late 30s presenting …
Background/Objectives: Endometriosis manifests as ectopic endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. This lesion can sometimes appear at unusual anatomical sites or within the intestinal tract, growing and mimicking cancer. Such …
Presence of embryo-derived cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in spent culture medium (SCM) represents a promising non-invasive alternative to the conventional preimplantation genetic testing (PGT). The present study evaluated the feasibility of …
Longitudinal studies suggest that diets encouraging higher intake of fruits and vegetables and lower intake of red meat are associated with a lower risk of laparoscopically-confirmed endometriosis. However, no studies …
