A 17 year-old 46,XX female patient with a history of urogenital reconstruction was found to have perineal endometriosis at the site of previously repaired vaginal stenosis. The patient presented in …
Patients with endometriosis are at a high risk of developing pelvic inflammatory disease. This case series presents three cases of colo-ovarian fistulas associated with endometriosis, highlighting the potential for conservative …
Endometriosis (EM), a prevalent gynecological disorder in reproductive-age women, lacks reliable noninvasive diagnostic tools. EM may be detected by neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), which are essential to inflammation and immunological …
Polypoid endometriosis is a remarkably rare variant of endometriosis that may clinically and morphologically mimic benign or malignant neoplasms. Vaginal involvement is particularly uncommon and can pose diagnostic challenges due …
This study is conducted to investigate whether serum microRNA (miR)-141-3p can serve as a biomarker for early-stage diagnosis of endometriosis.
This mendelian randomization (MR) study aimed to investigate whether endometriosis, overall and stratified by stage (I/II vs III/IV), confers causal effects on adverse pregnancy and perinatal outcomes.
Endometriosis (EMs) is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disease. While apoptosis resistance (evidenced by Bcl-2 upregulation and Bax/caspase-3 downregulation) remains a hallmark of EMs, recent studies reveal a paradoxical coexistence of …
Autoimmune and inflammatory rheumatic diseases (RDs) are more prevalent in women and often affect gynecological health. Particularly, heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) and dysmenorrhea are more common in patients with RD. …
Mitophagy is a catabolic mechanism that selectively degrades damaged mitochondria and precisely modulates mitochondrial content, thereby maintaining intracellular homeostasis under stress conditions. To date, most reviews on mitophagy have predominantly …
Evidence suggests that endometrioma cystectomy can significantly reduce ovarian reserve. Ethanol sclerotherapy is a promising, minimally invasive alternative. This overview aims to critically evaluate systematic reviews that addressed the safety …
