(Partial) loss of BAF250a (ARID1A) in rectovaginal deep-infiltrating endometriosis, endometriomas and involved pelvic sentinel lymph nodes
2015
study hypothesis: Loss of protein BAF250a (ARID1A) expression is present in women with rectovaginal deep-infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and endometriosis affecting the pelvic sentinel lymph nodes (PSLN). study finding: Partial loss of protein BAF250a was found in some of our patient samples, comprising all endometriosis entities, including rectovaginal DIE and endometriosis affecting the PSLN. what is known already: Loss of BAF250a (BRG-associated factor 250a)/ARIDIA (AT-rich interactive domain 1A) protein expression was identified among endometriosis-associated ovarian carcinomas and ovarian endometriosis, and this phenomenonwas described as a possible early event in the transformation o…
Peliosis hepatis: spectrum of imaging findings
2006
OBJECTIVE. It is important to recognize the imaging characteristics of peliosis hepatis because peliotic lesions may mimic several different types of focal hepatic lesions CONCLUSION. We illustrate the spectrum of imaging findings of peliosis hepatis, including sonography, CT, MR, and angiography.
Post-operative management and follow-up of surgical treatment in the case of rectovaginal and retrocervical endometriosis.
2020
Abstract Introduction Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) affects between 3.8% and 37% of all endometriosis patients, mostly affecting rectovaginal septum or retrocervical space and characterized by the severe endometriosis-related complaints. Nowadays, generally managed with surgery. However, this is associated with a risk of postoperative complications. To better evaluate intra- and postoperative complications and outcomes for rectovaginal (RVE) and retrocervical endometriosis (RCE), the preoperative management should be accurately described and compared. Methodology This is a cohort retrospective study performed at the Endometriosis Centre of Charité-University Clinic, Berlin. 34 patie…
Serum interleukin-6 levels are elevated in women with minimal-mild endometriosis.
2006
BACKGROUND: There is a need for a reliable marker of endometriosis, especially in early stages of peritoneal disease during which imaging is not effective. The use of serum interleukin (IL)-6 as a marker is controversial. To readdress the matter, patients undergoing laparoscopy were prospectively evaluated for serum IL-6 levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 119 women 31 years old who underwent laparoscopy were divided into groups: control patients (n = 38) with no pathologic findings; endometriosis sufferers (n = 47) with minimal-mild (MM, n = 11) or moderate-severe (MS, n = 36) endometriosis; uterine myomas (n = 13) and benign ovarian pathologies (n = 21). Blood was drawn on cycles da…
Surgical Neuropelveology: Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve Endometriosis. Laparoscopic Resection and Nerve Transplantation
2021
ABSTRACT Study Objective To demonstrate the application of surgical neuroanatomic principles for the diagnosis and treatment of deep infiltrating endometriosis involving the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. Design Video demonstration of laparoscopic lateral femoral cutaneous endometriosis resection with nerve transplant. Setting Endometriosis infiltrating somatic nerves is a poorly known condition, which can cause severe neuropathic symptoms [1] and is often unrecognized with a subsequent treatment delay [1] . Intimate knowledge of pelvic neuroanatomy and expertise in minimally invasive surgery are essential to manage this challenging surgical scenario 2 , 3 , 4 . Interventions Thirty-six y…
Isolated infiltrative endometriosis of the sciatic nerve: a report of three patients.
2007
Objective: To report that isolated endometriosis of the sciatic nerve without further manifestation of endometriosis does exist. Design: We describe our technique of laparoscopic neurolysis of the sciatic nerve and the sacral plexus. Setting: Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, St. Elisabeth Hospital, affiliated with the University of Cologne, Cologne, Germany. Patient(s): Three female patients with isolated endometriotic infiltration of the endopelvic portion of the sciatic nerve. Intervention(s): Elective laparoscopic neurolysis of the sciatic nerve with removal of endometriosis. Main Outcome Measure(s): Disparition of pain in the patients and histologic information of the endometrio…
Selected food intake and risk of endometriosis.
2004
Background: To offer data on the relationship between diet and risk of pelvic endometriosis, we analysed data collected in the framework of two case-control studies. Methods: Data from two case-control studies conducted in Northern Italy between 1984 and 1999 were combined. Cases were 504 women aged < 65 years (median age 33 years, range 20-65) with a laparoscopically confirmed diagnosis of endometriosis, admitted to a network of obstetrics and gynaecology departments in Milan, Brescia and Pavia. Controls were 504 women (median age 34 years, range 20-61) admitted for acute non-gynaecological, non-hormonal, non-neoplastic conditions. Results: Compared to women in the lowest tertile of intake…
Determinants of seasonal influenza vaccination in pregnant women in Valencia, Spain
2016
Background: In most countries the coverage of seasonal influenza vaccination in pregnant women is low. We investigated the acceptance, reasons for rejection and professional involvement related to vaccine information in pregnant women in Valencia, Spain. Methods: Observational retrospective study in 200 pregnant women, 100 vaccinated and 100 unvaccinated, were interviewed during the 2014/2015 vaccination campaign. Electronic medical records, immunization registry and telephone interviews were used to determine reasons for vaccination and immunization rejection. Results: 40.5% of pregnant women in the health department were vaccinated. The midwife was identified as source of information for …
Surgical Neuropelviology: Combined Sacral Plexus Neurolysis and Laparoscopic Laterally Extended Endopelvic Resection in Deep Lateral Pelvic Endometri…
2020
ABSTRACT Objective Surgical demonstration of combined sacral plexus neurolysis and laparoscopic laterally extended endopelvic resection for deep lateral infiltrating endometriosis. Design Video showing principles of neurolysis and laparoscopic laterally extended endopelvic resection applied to endometriotic surgery. Setting University tertiary referral center. Deep infiltrating endometriosis is an underestimated disease with real medical and clinical issues, recently classified as central pelvic endometriosis and lateral pelvic endometriosis further divided into superficial and deep according to the structures’ involvement [1] . The surgical removal of endometriotic foci remains the standar…
