Ovarian carcinosarcoma typically comprises high-grade carcinoma and sarcoma components. We report a case of a woman in her 40s with endometriosis-associated ovarian carcinosarcoma exhibiting an unusual presentation of well-differentiated adenocarcinoma …
Adenomyosis is a benign gynecologic condition characterized by ectopic endometrial glands and stroma present within the myometrium. Background/Objectives: The gold standard in diagnosis is the histology of hysterectomy specimens. Due …
Whether endometriosis is a progressive disease remains debated. Central to this debate is understanding the natural history of endometriotic lesions, which are essentially wounds undergoing repeated tissue injury and repair. …
Ovarian endometriosis (OEM) is characterised by ectopic endometrial tissue growth within the ovary. In these ectopic lesions, the ectopic epithelium plays a crucial role in OEM progression and has been …
Ultrasound assessment of superficial endometriosis (SE) is difficult, and it is still mainly diagnosed via surgery. We hypothesized that a thickening of the subperitoneal layer of tissue overlying the anterior …
Ovarian cancer (OC) is the eighth leading cause of cancer deaths in women globally, mainly originating from epithelial cells. It is further divided into type-I and type-II based on histology, …
Endometriosis is a gynecological disorder marked by the formation of endometrial tissue (gland and stroma) outside the uterine cavity. Macrophages, erythrocytes, and apoptotic endometrial tissue transplant into the peritoneal cavity, …
To (1) determine how application of the updated international definition of deep endometriosis (DE) alters apparent disease prevalence across pelvic sites, and (2) characterize the distribution of endometriosis phenotypes, including …
The extracellular matrix (ECM) critically influences cell behavior, yet its properties in human endometrial lesions (HEL) and human uterine fibromas (HUF) are not well characterized. This study aimed to characterize …
Background: Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) frequently affects the posterior pelvic compartment, where accurate non-invasive imaging is essential for diagnosis and surgical planning. Aim: This systematic review evaluates the diagnostic performance …
