PURPOSE: To evaluate the proposed criteria in a large sample and in additional subgroups in order to test the validity of the hysteroscopic features widely-accepted as suggestive of CE. METHOD(S): All patients (n: 2675) underwent outpatien…

Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy. We present two different techniques of laparoscopic management of CSP, with the concomitant repair of the coexisting uterine isthmocele. The first case is a combination of d…

Endometriosis is a common gynaecological pathology characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, and the most frequent locations of endometriosis are ovaries and posterior compartment of the pelvis. In this…

BACKGROUND: Implantation failure remains a mystery since decades. This procedure needs a "top quality embryo" and a "normal" uterine cavity. To assess uterine cavity before first in vitro fertilization (IVF), many diagnostic tools could be …

INTRODUCTION: Although various perinatal complications have been reported to be increased in the pregnant patients with adenomyosis, it is not clear what type of patients with adenomyosis is more likely to cause obstetric complications. In …

OBJECTIVE: Post-operative CRP on postoperative day 4 (POD) is used for the early detection of complications after colorectal surgery for cancer, but there is no evidence yet that justifies the use of this marker for bowel resection in case …

INTRODUCTION: Hysterectomy is a commonly performed procedure with widely variable costs. As gynecologists divert from invasive to minimally invasive approaches, many factors come into play in determining hysterectomy cost and efforts should…

INTRODUCTION: Previous international studies showed that endometriosis could have a link with obstetrical complications, as an increased risk of preterm birth, gestational diabetes mellitus, and cesarean section. However, the results are di…

OBJECTIVE: To provide guidelines from the French College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (CNGOF), based on the best currently available evidence, for the prophylactic procedures associated with gynecological surgery for benign disease su…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Presence of endometrial fluid (EF) is a poorly understood pathology and remains a challenge for clinicians, as very little data exists to explain its consequences and treatment. Our objective was to investigate risk facto…

INTRODUCTION: Transvaginal ultrasound is fundamental for the mapping of endometriosis, and the imaging criteria have been clearly described for different organs study. However, no specific ultrasonographic signs of tubal endometriosis have …

OBJECTIVES: Pregnancy complicated with ovarian endometrioma is a risk factor for preterm delivery and rupture or infection during pregnancy. This study aimed to clarify the effectiveness and safety of transvaginal aspiration during pregnanc…

OBJECTIVE: To provide guidelines from the French College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (CNGOF), based on the best evidence available, concerning subtotal or total hysterectomy, for benign disease. METHODS: The CNGOF has decided to ado…

OBJECTIVE: Lateral parametrium endometriosis (LPE) can be associated with infiltration of ureters and hypogastric plexus, causing severe painful symptoms and functional impairment, and requiring complex and extensive surgery. The aim of thi…

INTRODUCTION: Adenomyosis associated abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB-A) often remains non-responsive to medical management. Uterine sparing treatment in young patients presenting with refractory AUB-A poses a challenge. CASE REPORT: A 28-ye…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a common disease in women, which requires a medical and surgical approach. Surgical societies recommend a multidisciplinary management in tertiary referral centers. The objective of our study is to assess the …

INTRODUCTION: Surgical management of Diaphragmatic and thoracic endometriosis (DTE) is still controversial, a thoracic or an abdominal approach can be proposed. METHODS: We conducted a multicentric retrospective study in 8 thoracic, gyneco…

OBJECTIVE: To provide a snapshot of the surgical management of endometriosis in French high-volume activity centers. METHODS: Analysis of prospectively collected data between November 2015 and May 2017 in 21 centers with a high volume of e…

Adenomyosis is characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue within the myometrium. Treatment options ranges from use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and hormonal suppression for symptomatic relief, to endometrial abl…

OBJECTIVE: The paper compares shear wave elastography (SWE), strain elastography (SE) and magnetic resonance imaging apparent diffusion coefficient (MRI ADC) values, to evaluate their efficacy for differentiating between adenomyosis (AM) an…

OBJECTIVES: To review the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) in the preoperative detection of uterosacral ligaments (USL) in patients with clinical suspicion of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). METHODS: Extensive sea…

INTRODUCTION: Surgical management of deep endometriosis with colorectal involvement remains an option after failure of medical treatments. Conventional laparoscopy is currently considered the standard approach for surgical treatment. Recent…

AIM: Endometriosis is associated with infertility. The aim of this study was to examine the overall proteomic changes of eutopic endometrium in infertile women with endometriosis. METHODS: Tandem mass tags combined with multidimensional li…

Endometriosis is a common disease, not uncommonly debilitating with severe negative impact on all domains of life for women. The long-standing approach is that endometriosis is one of many gynecological benign conditions. Nevertheless, ther…
