Endometriosis is a benign disease that can cause pain and infertility in women. Debate exists over how endometriosis should best be diagnosed. On one hand, endometriosis can be diagnosed by directly examining pelvic anatomy via a surgical p…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis of the bowel can be associated with significant morbidity. Surgery to remove it carries risks. Options include conservative shaving or discoid resection and more radical segmental bowel resection. AIMS: To determin…
OBJECTIVES: Pouch of Douglas (POD) obliteration is a severe consequence of inflammation in the pelvis, often seen in patients with endometriosis. The sliding sign is a dynamic transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) test that can diagnose POD obliter…
We aim to first systematically review and perform a meta-analysis of the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and, second, to evaluate the accuracy of various sonographic diagnostic crit…
To determine the effectiveness of advanced transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) to triage endometriosis surgeries to either a tertiary hospital with planned presence of multidisciplinary surgical teams (MDT) or a non-tertiary hospital. A retrospec…
OBJECTIVES: To determine whether ovarian fixation at transvaginal ultrasound (TVU) is a marker for a need for laparoscopic pelvic sidewall surgery (ie, ureterolysis or dissection of adhesions involving the pelvic sidewall). The relationship…
BACKGROUND: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is a common gynaecological condition accounting for 20% of all gynaecological referrals. There are wide ranges of causes with overlapping symptomatology, therefore the management of the condition is a f…
Advances in preoperative diagnostics as well as in surgical techniques for the treatment of endometriosis, especially for deep endometriosis, call for a classification system, that includes all aspects of the disease such as peritoneal endo…
COVID-19 has led to new obstacles in the care for women with endometriosis. With many centers around the globe temporarily ceasing outpatient appointments, diagnostic imaging for non-acute pelvic pain, surgery for endometriosis, and fertili…
We aim to describe the diagnosis and surgical management of urinary tract endometriosis (UTE). We detail current diagnostic tools, including advanced transvaginal ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, and surgical diagnostic tools such as…
The gold standard for diagnosis of endometriosis remains direct visualization at laparoscopy and histological confirmation. However, ultrasound is emerging as a key modality in detecting endometriosis. This case demonstrates how ultrasound …
Over recent years, there has been major advancement in the use of transvaginal ultrasound (TVU) for the pre-operative diagnosis and staging of deep endometriosis. The International Deep Endometriosis Analysis (IDEA) Consensus paper establis…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To validate the preoperative ultrasound-based endometriosis staging system (UBESS) for predicting the correct Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RANZCOG) and Australasian Gynaecolo…
