The term "deciduosis" is used to describe the severe pregnancy-associated occurrence of ectopic decidua with a usually asymptomatic course. We report on two cases of massive maternal intra-abdominal bleeding due to such symptomatic changes.…

BACKGROUND: In endometriosis, angiogenesis is a crucial step for implantation of the exfoliates. A priori potential to induce angiogenesis by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression was compared in eutopic endometrium of patien…

BACKGROUND: Malignant transformation in endometriosis is a rare but well known complication. However, detailed mechanisms of malignant transition and tumourigenesis in endometriosis remain unknown. We here describe the case of an endometrio…

The pathogenesis of endometriosis is dependent on implantation. Therefore, angiogenesis of the ectopic endometrium is discussed as a crucial step in the development of an endometriotic lesion. It is not only the main condition for implantat…

Fluorescence diagnosis of endometriosis on the chorioallantoic membrane using 5-aminolaevulinic acid
The chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) is a useful model for the fluorescence diagnosis of experimentally induced endometriosis. In our experimental setup 75.7% of the histologically examined tissue preparations were viable and only 24.3% showe…

BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of nonpigmented endometrial lesions by simple laparoscopic visualization is difficult and often inaccurate. We therefore sought to establish a new and more accurate method to visualize these nonpigmented peritoneal…
