Deep infiltrative endometriosis involving the bowel is a complex disease in which the optimal minimally invasive surgical approach remains uncertain, particularly regarding long-term fertility, recurrence, and healthcare utilization. We conducted …
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 …
Endometriosis is a chronic, heterogenous disorder in which cyclical hemorrhage and repetitive repair generate ectopic implants that persist, recur, and drive pain and infertility; conventional frameworks emphasizing hormonal aberration and …
Endometriosis may rarely present with atypical manifestations that closely mimic intra-abdominal malignancy or severe pelvic sepsis, resulting in significant diagnostic uncertainty. We present two contrasting cases of presumed severe endometriosis …

Growing teratoma syndrome (GTS) is a rare condition classically associated with platinum-based chemotherapy for malignant ovarian germ cell tumors. However, post-treatment findings following ovarian immature teratoma may represent a broader …
To evaluate the feasibility of collagen-binding ⁶⁸Ga-CBP8 PET/MR for the noninvasive detection of deep infiltrating endometriosis.
The survival of ectopic endometrial lesions in endometriosis critically depends on their ability to evade immune recognition and clearance by the host, a process known as immune evasion. Recent studies …
