BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a heterogeneous uterine disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue within the myometrium. Autophagy, a key homeostatic process involved in tissue remodeling and stress adaptation, has been incons…

BACKGROUND: The surgical management of endometrioma(s) remains challenging. Although laparoscopic surgery is a well-established treatment of endometrioma(s), caution is required to minimize ovarian damage. Several surgical techniques have b…

Endometriosis, a prevalent gynecological condition affecting 10–15% of reproductive-age women, involves the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. This chronic inflammatory disease can significantly impact fertility b…

Here, we introduce a method for estimating a 'growth chart' of the fetal cortex, i.e. for estimating the average cortical growth as well as the anatomical variability around this average during pregnancy.Methods: We use 148 healthy fetal br…

BACKGROUND: Hysterectomy is a common surgical procedure in gynaecology, performed through abdominal, vaginal, and laparoscopic techniques. The vaginal route is typically preferred for benign conditions like fibroids, adenomyosis, and uterin…

Background/Objectives: Adenomyosis is a benign condition where ectopic endometrial glandular tissue is found within the uterine myometrium. Its impact on women’s reproductive outcomes is substantial, primarily due to defective decidualizati…

In brief: The impact of adenomyosis on reproductive health needs to be fully understood. By using a murine model, this study provides novel insights into the nuanced mechanisms associated with fertility challenges and offers a foundation fo…

Background: Malignant-associated abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is a rare pathology, likely to occur in 1% of scar endometriosis. The objectives of this study were to update the evidence on tumor degeneration arising from AWE to notify …

Abstract Study question What does the collaborative document on adenomyosis terminology, classification, and diagnosis by ESGE, ESHRE, and WES provides? Summary answer This good practice recommendations paper offers guidance on the technica…

Abstract Study question This study aimed to highlight the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis using a murine model of medically induced adenomyosis. Summary answer Autophagy seems to play a role in the early stages of the d…

OBJECTIVES: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) accounts for 15 to 40 % of exploratory laparoscopies. An exploratory laparoscopy was performed to exclude the presence of peritoneal endometriosis in patients experiencing significant impairment of thei…

Background and Objectives: Adenomyosis (the presence of ectopic endometrial glands and stroma below the endometrial–myometrial junction) is a benign condition which is increasingly diagnosed in younger women suffering from infertility. The …

International audience

Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is one of the main isthmocele symptoms, together with abnormal uterine bleeding and secondary infertility. When patients undergo a laparoscopic niche repair surgery, it is important to determine if they present ass…

Contrary to popular belief, we have known for many years that the endometrium is not a sterile environment and is considered to be a low-biomass milieu compared to the vagina. Numerous trials and studies have attempted to establish a valid …

At present, there is no curative treatment for endometriosis. Medical management and surgical treatment do not provide long-term relief. A detailed understanding of its pathophysiology is mandatory in order to facilitate both the diagnosis …

Umbilical endometriosis is a rare manifestation, most often isolated, of endometriosis, accounting for 0,5-1 % of all cases. It can be primary or secondary following surgery. It usually presents as a solid, skin-colored, red or purple-black…

BCL6 (B-cell lymphoma 6) is a proto-oncogene and transcriptional repressor initially described as being involved in B-cell lymphoma. Recently, this factor has been identified as a promising tissue biomarker which could be used to diagnose w…

Endometriosis is the presence of stromal and epithelial cells outside the uterine cavity. This chronic inflammatory disease affects about 10 % of the female population in reproductive age and is responsible for chronic pelvic pain and infer…

BackgroundThe application of carbon dioxide (CO2) laser for laparoscopic gynecologic surgery was introduced in 1979 and spread after improving instrumentation, due to the versatility of the CO2 laser technology and the parallel increase of …

Embryo implantation requires adequate dialogue between a good quality embryo and a receptive endometrium. This implantation is still considered as the black box of reproductive medicine. Endometriosis is a highly prevalent chronic inflammat…

The rise of oocytes cryopreservation (OOC) in assisted reproductive techniques allows fertility preservation (FP) in an increasing number of indications. Endometriosis, a highly prevalent disease, potentially impairing ovarian reserve, seem…
