Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and characterized by ectopic endometrial-like tissue growth. Although traditionally considered a benign gynecologica…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory pathology estrogen-dependent. It is a condition affecting 5%-10% of women of reproductive age worldwide. Recent evidence indicating an embryological origin of endometriosis has provided new insights i…

Endometriosis is a pathological condition characterized by the presence of the endometrial tissue, including epithelial and stromal components, outside the uterine cavity. It affects nearby 10% of women of reproductive age and is responsibl…

Endometriosis is a pathological condition characterized by the presence of the endometrial tissue, outside the uterine cavity. It affects nearly 10% of women of reproductive age and is responsible for infertility, chronic pain, and the weak…

Endometriosis, a very common disease in women, is characterized by endometrial structures outside the uterine cavity. The lack of a reliable noninvasive diagnostic test and the often nonspecific symptoms of this pathology are responsible fo…

Endometriosis is a pathological condition defined by the occurrence of endometrial glandular and stromal structures in anatomical compartments different from the uterine cavity. Endometriosis is a genetic polymorphism, estrogen-dependent in…

Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of endometrial glandular and stromal structures outside the uterine cavity. It is an inflammatory estrogen dependent disease characterized by gene polymorphisms. This is a very frequent patholo…

Endometriosis can be defined as the presence of the endometrium outside the uterine cavity. It affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and causes infertility, chronic pain, and deterioration of the quality of life. Since the …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent and chronic inflammatory gynecological disease due to the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. This disease affects approximately 10% of the female population.…

Endometriosis is a gynecological disease characterized by the growth of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity. The incidence of the disease is very high, there are currently no reliable early diagnostic tests, the therapi…

BACKGROUND/AIM: Endometriosis is a gynecological estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease due to ectopic endometrial tissue and often associated with pelvic pain. Despite its high prevalence, there are still uncertainties about its pathogene…

Endometriosis is a very frequent estrogen-dependent gynecological disease, that affects up to 10% of all reproductive-aged women. The hallmark of endometriosis is the pathological growth of ectopic endometrial-like tissue outside of the ute…

OBJECTIVE: The pathogenesis of endometriosis is still mysterious, being retrograde menstruation and coelomic metaplasia the most accepted hypotheses. Recently, it has been proposed that endometriosis is caused by fine-tuning alterations of …

Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disease characterized by the ectopic proliferation of endometrial tissue outside of the uterine cavity. The pathogenesis of this disease is still obscure, and Sampson's theory of retrograde menstruat…

Endometriosis is characterized by disabling symptoms that afflict young women with severe physical discomfort, difficulty in relationship life, and infertility; however, the currently available therapeutic strategies are unsatisfactory. Goa…

Endometriosis is a very common disease, affecting 10% of women in the reproductive age. To date, a significant delay between onset of the symptoms and definitive diagnosis is caused by the lack of a reliable non-invasive diagnostic test. Re…

Ectopic endometrium in human foetuses is a common event and sustains the theory of müllerianosis in the pathogenesis of endometriosis, a disease that predisposes to cancer

The anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) is a homodimeric glycoprotein member of the transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) superfamily, is secreted by Sertoli cells in the embryonic testes and is responsible of the regression of the mullerian duct. …

Incidence of endometriosis is very high in women in the reproductive age (around 10%). To date, a reliable non-invasive diagnostic test for early diagnosis of endometriosis is not available. In this article we describe the potential value a…

BACKGROUND: The anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) is a member of the transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) superfamily, which is responsible of the regression of the mullerian duct. AMH is expressed in the normal endometrium, where, acting in a p…

Endometriosis is estimated to affect 10% of women during the reproductive years. The lack of a non-invasive diagnostic test significantly contributes to the long delay between onset of the symptoms and definitive diagnosis of endometriosis.…

Endometriosis is a common benign pathology, characterised by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the endometrial cavity with a prevalence of 10–15% in reproductive-aged women. The pathogenesis is not completely understood, and severa…
