The minimum distance between the vaginal mucosal epithelium and the endometriotic glands was <1,000 microm in 30 patients (49.2%), <2,000 microm in 44 patients (72.1%), and <5,000 microm in 60 patients (98.4%). Our findings provided histolo…

Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2006.02.093

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether genes that had been found to be differentially expressed in deep-infiltrating endometriosis and matched eutopic endometrium in our previous complementary DNA microarray study also are differentially express…
