Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease significantly impairing quality of life (QoL). While the Mediterranean diet (MD) may modulate inflammation, evidence regarding its relationship with symptom burden is limited. This …
This study characterized the peritoneal surface of the posterior cervix and vaginal fornix. Transvaginal ultrasonography (TVUS) was performed during laparoscopic surgery to visualize structures beyond the muscular and epithelial layers …
Ovarian cancer remains one of the deadliest gynecologic malignancies because of late-stage diagnosis, biological heterogeneity, and the lack of effective early detection strategies. Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) comprises several histotypes, …
Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a pivotal role in evaluating gynecologic diseases, offering superior soft-tissue characterization, multiplanar imaging, and functional assessment compared to ultrasound and computed tomography. This article …
Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women worldwide, with symptom burden significantly impacting quality of life. While current treatment guidelines focus primarily on hormonal and surgical interventions, the role of …
Epithelial ovarian cancer is not a single disease but a group of biologically distinct malignancies that include serous (high-grade and low-grade), endometrioid, clear cell, and mucinous carcinomas, along with other …
Endometriosis is associated with immune dysregulation yet circulating cytokine measurements have shown limited discriminatory value. We investigated whether peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from women with endometriosis exhibit altered basal …
Background: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disorder with limited treatment options. The precise molecular targets of curcumin and its effects on local estrogen synthesis in this disease remain unclear. Methods: We …
Background: Endometriosis affects 190 million women worldwide, so there is a need for accessible and more comprehensive knowledge regarding the pharmacotherapeutic options that can be offered to patients. This systematic …
Background and Objective: The ultrasound sliding sign dynamically assesses pouch of Douglas (POD) obliteration in suspected endometriosis. Transvaginal (TVS) and transrectal (TRS) ultrasound are used in patients with and without …
