OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence of proliferative endometrial disorders in women with histologically confirmed adenomyosis and to evaluate the independent association between adenomyosis and each lesion type. DESIGN: Retrospective cohor…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Is diffuse adenomyosis involving the inner myometrial layer independently associated with chronic endometritis in women with infertility, and women who have experienced recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) or repeated implantat…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether pre-conception surgery for deep endometriosis (DE) is associated with obstetric outcomes compared with conservative management. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: Single-center tertiary hospi…
OBJECTIVE: To explore the role of intraoperative transvaginal ultrasound in surgical planning for deep bowel endometriosis involving the rectum, rectosigmoid junction, and inferior sigmoid colon [1]. SETTING: Pilot study in the form of a d…
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Adenomyosis is a benign uterine disorder characterized by an inflammatory and hyperestrogenic state. Its association with endometrial cancer (EC) remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the correlation b…
PURPOSE: To describe a standardized intraoperative transvaginal ultrasound (IOTVUS) technique for assessing rectosigmoid deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE), and to explore its potential advantages in guiding real-time surgical decision-m…
AIM: The aim of this work was to evaluate the prevalence of low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) and its long-term evolution following colorectal segmental resection for deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and identify any associated ri…
RESEARCH QUESTION: In women undergoing fertility-sparing surgery for unilateral ovarian endometriomas, how do recurrence rates and postoperative ovarian reserve compare between plasma energy ablation (PEA) and laparoscopic cystectomy? DESI…
INTRODUCTION: Surgery is the cornerstone of ovarian cancer treatment. Transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) is a novel, minimally invasive technique that is gaining interest in gynecological oncology. However…
INTRODUCTION: Evidence about intra- and postoperative complication rates related to transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) for benign gynecological conditions is still limited. We report and analyze data from …
(1) Background: Sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping represents an accurate and feasible technique for the surgical staging of endometrial and cervical cancer. This is commonly performed by conventional laparoscopy or robotic-assisted laparosc…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the feasibility of performing omentectomy by transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) for surgical staging of ovarian and high-risk endometrial malignancies. METHODS: Th…
Patients with advanced-stage ovarian cancer frequently present with peritoneal carcinomatosis, and a diaphragmatic involvement is observed in about 40% of cases. The goal of treatment includes complete surgical cytoreduction associated with…
Transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) has been increasingly applied to perform multiple gynecologic procedures. However, evidence is lacking on whether this surgical approach is feasible for patients with pri…
