A two-third majority of infertile women exhibit endometriosis in pre-ART diagnostic hysteroscopy and laparoscopic chromopertubation: only one-third have a tubal obstruction
Archives of gynecology and obstetrics ·doi:10.1007/s00404-020-05479-5

PURPOSE: This study was undertaken to evaluate the prevalence of endometriosis in infertile women of couples with non-male factor infertility. METHODS: A retrospective validation analysis was carried out of consecutive women of infertile c…

Cycle-related Diarrhea and Dysmenorrhea are Independent Predictors of Peritoneal Endometriosis, Cycle-related Dyschezia is an Independent Predictor of Rectal Involvement
Geburtshilfe und Frauenheilkunde ·doi:10.1055/a-1033-9588

Introduction The clinical presentation of endometriosis is extremely varied. Because endometriosis symptoms may overlap with symptoms caused by gastroenterological disorders, this can lead to misdiagnosis and a considerable delay in arrivin…

Extensive endometriosis surgery: rASRM and Enzian score independently relate to post-operative complication grade
Archives of gynecology and obstetrics ·doi:10.1007/s00404-019-05425-0

PURPOSE: We aimed to assess post-operative complications based on the Clavien-Dindo classification system following routine laparoscopic treatment of all stages of endometriosis. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was carried out to ide…

Endometriosis reduces ovarian response in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation independent of AMH, AFC, and women's age measured by follicular output rate (FORT) and number of oocytes retrieved
Archives of gynecology and obstetrics ·doi:10.1007/s00404-019-05337-z

PURPOSE: To determine the influence of endometriosis on the ovarian response during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation measured by number of oocytes retrieved and the follicular output rate (FORT). METHODS: A retrospective, single center …
