Ureteral endometriosis with hydroureteronephrosis can impair renal function, yet few clear guidelines exist for its surgical treatment. This study aimed to compare the clinicopathological features between patients undergoing ureterolysis with …
Urinary tract endometriosis affects fewer than 6% of patients with endometriosis, with ureteral involvement representing the second most common site of disease (9-23%). The condition is often asymptomatic, which may …
Ureteral injuries (UIs) remain a major challenge to clinicians in complex gynecological surgery. In this study, we employed three cases to demonstrate the locations of the ureter prone to injury …
To describe a novel laparoscopic technique, prophylactic ureteral suturing (PUS), developed to reinforce structurally weakened ureteral segments following extensive ureterolysis for deep endometriosis, to avoid segmental resection or reimplantation.
Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is a severe form of endometriosis, with endometriotic implants that can invade several anatomical structures. The urinary tract is the second most common site for deep …
The objective was to assess outcomes of robotic-assisted transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (RA-vNOTES) performed for hysterectomy and endometriosis excision. We conducted a retrospective case series across two hospitals …
Introduction: In endometriosis, urinary tract involvement occurs in 1-5.5% of cases, where the ureter is affected in 9-23%. Unfortunately, endometriosis may remain asymptomatic even with significant anatomical progression. A delay …
Background: Deep endometriosis (DE) is a special form of endometriosis, one of the most common benign diseases in gynecology. In the specific case of DE, ectopic endometrium can be found …
Surgery for deep-infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) carries a high risk of complications, including pelvic abscesses. We would like to present the laparoscopic management of a pelvic abscess caused by Prevotella bivia …
To develop a model, including clinical features and ultrasound findings, to predict the need for ureterolysis (i.e., dissection of the ureter) during laparoscopy for endometriosis.
