Women with infertility are often investigated with saline-infusion sonohysterography and hysterosalpingo-contrast-sonography. The high prevalence of endometriosis in this population also warrants an evaluation with transvaginal ultrasound f…

We aim to evaluate and compare the diagnostic accuracy of deep endometriosis transvaginal ultrasound (DE TVS) in the presence and absence of ovarian endometriomas (OEs). This was a multicentre observational study of prospectively collected …

In the preoperative evaluation of patients, a basic pelvic transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) can reliably predict the presence or absence of ovarian endometriomas. The visualisation of an endometrioma and the known association between endometri…

INTRODUCTION: The study aim was to evaluate the transvaginal sonography (TVS) "sliding sign" alone, direct visualization of the bowel with TVS, and the combination of both methods (ie "sliding sign" and direct visualization of the bowel), t…

1. To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) direct visualisation (DV) of rectal/rectosigmoid (RS) nodules compared to the "sliding sign" (SS) to predict deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) of the rectum ® and t…

article 2017

A negative uterine “sliding sign” (i.e. POD obliteration/uterorectal adhesions) is known to be significantly associated with rectal deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). We aim to compare the performance of the “sliding sign” alone to dire…
