The paradoxical association between endometrioma size and serum anti-Müllerian hormone levels in infertile women.

The impact of endometrioma size on ovarian reserve remains controversial. Although endometriomas are known to reduce anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels, some studies suggest a paradoxical association between larger cysts and …

Catheter-Directed Sclerotherapy Versus Ovarian Cystectomy for Unilateral Ovarian Endometrioma: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: Ovarian cystectomy is standard treatment for endometrioma but is associated with decreased ovarian reserve. Catheter-directed sclerotherapy (CDS) is an ovary-sparing image-guided alternative; however, supporting evidence comprises retrospective comparative and …

Comparison Between Catheter-Directed Sclerotherapy and Surgical Removal of Large Ovarian Endometriomas: A Retrospective, Single-Center Observational Study.

Background/Objectives: The treatment options for endometriosis vary depending on individual needs and clinical circumstances. To preserve ovarian reserve, ethanol catheter-directed sclerotherapy may be considered as a treatment option. We compared …

Endometriomas are heterogeneous for functional FSH receptor expression and steroidogenic function.

We investigated whether ovarian endometriomas uniformly express functional FSH receptors (FSHR) and respond to FSH by activating transcriptional programs that drive aromatase and steroid hormone production. Endometrioma cyst capsules were …

Investigating Unilateral Ovarian Endometrioma's Effect on Ova and Embryo Quality in 409 Infertile Endometriotic Patients.

In women with unilateral endometriosis, how do ovarian endometriomas and their inflammatory content affect oocyte and embryo quality in affected versus healthy ovaries, and what is the impact on ART …

Bilateral endometrioma of ovary in a 25-year-old woman with unilateral autoamputation and contralateral torsion of ovary: A case report.

We report a unique case of bilateral ovarian endometrioma in a young woman with suspected torsion. To the best of our knowledge, no previous cases of unilateral torsion with contralateral …

Hidden Burden of Fallopian Tube Endometriosis: Prevalence and Associations with Pelvic Pathology.

Background/Objectives: Fallopian tube endometriosis is frequently underreported due to its nonspecific presentation, limitations in imaging detection, and the fact that histologic diagnosis often requires the submission of the entire fallopian …

Coexistence of gynecological pathology with endometriosis and adenomyosis.

Both endometriosis and adenomyosis can impact quality of life. Endometriosis is a chronic, benign, condition characterized by the growth of endometrium outside the uterus, which affects ~10% of women from …

A Decision Tree Model Integrating Ultrasound Sliding Sign Optimizes Surgical Planning for Stage IV Endometriosis: An Ambispective Cohort Study.

Plasma energy ablation versus cystectomy in fertility-sparing surgery for endometriomas: impact on recurrence and ovarian reserve.

In women undergoing fertility-sparing surgery for unilateral ovarian endometriomas, how do recurrence rates and postoperative ovarian reserve compare between plasma energy ablation (PEA) and laparoscopic cystectomy?
