In a literature review, news in symptomatology and follow-up of endometriosis were analyzed (infertility, pain, hemorrhage, adnexal tumors). Survey and examination can be made with improved quality (pain scale, menorragha scheme of Higham). Diagnosis and follow-up of endometriosis are more perfect by ultrasonographical examination by the gynecologist in his office. Ultrasonography is better for endometrioma and adenomyosis than other localisation (complementary explorations-magnetic resonance imaging, outside of consultation, are useful for deeper and superficial lesions). In follow-up, clinical research and ultrasonic exploration show the true relapses. Treatment's observance and success will be improved by ultrasonic analysis. Intolerances, add-back therapy, contraception, substitutive hormonal treatment of menopauses and cancer risk, are different problem and solution will be offer.

Heterotaxy syndrome, dextrocardia, ureteropelvic obstruction, endometriosis, and pulmonary hypertension in an adult with congenital heart defects: a case report.
J Med Case Rep
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Damascus University, Damascus, Syria.
Background: Heterotaxia is characterized by an abnormal positioning of the thoracic and/or abdominal organs, resulting in various physiological and hemodynamic implications. Congenital heart disease involves structural irregularities in the heart or major vessels within the chest, leading to functional challenges.
Case Presentation: We present a 26-year-old Arab female patient with a complex medical history involving heterotaxy, dextrocardia, congenital heart disease, and ureteropelvic junction obstruction diagnosed in her first year of life, followed by the identification of endometriosis in her early twenties.
Influencing factors and prediction model construction for recurrence in patients with ovarian endometriosis after laparoscopic conservative surgery.
Am J Transl Res
December 2024
Department of Gynecology, Suzhou Ninth People's Hospital Suzhou 215200, Jiangsu, China.
Objective: To investigate the factors influencing recurrence following laparoscopic conservative surgery in patients with ovarian endometriosis (OEM) and to develop a predictive model.
Methods: In this retrospective study, the clinical data from 212 OEM patients who underwent laparoscopic conservative surgery at Suzhou Ninth People's Hospital from May 2013 to December 2021 were meticulously reviewed. According to disease recurrence over a 2-year follow-up period, the patients were divided into a recurrence group and a non-recurrence group.
Müllerianosis of the urinary bladder in pre- and postmenopausal women: a literature review.

December 2024
Department of Urology, University Hospital of Alexandroupolis, Democritus University of Thrace, Alexandroupolis, Greece.
Müllerianosis of the urinary bladder is a rare pathological condition involving ectopic Müllerian-derived tissues within the bladder. Despite its benign nature, due to its ability to mimic malignant conditions such as bladder carcinoma, diagnosis might be challenging. In this review, data from 36 cases across 32 studies were analyzed, focusing on patient demographics, symptomatology, diagnostic imaging, and histopathological features.

Blood Transfus
December 2024
Department of Transfusion Medicine and Hematology, Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda - Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico Milano, Milan, Italy.
Background: Although topical corticosteroids (TCS) represent first-line treatment for vulvar lichen sclerosus (VLS) and as such should be prescribed to all women at time of diagnosis, approximately 30% of patients do not experience complete symptom resolution following such treatment. TCS may not effectively improve vulvar trophism and elasticity, both of which are crucial for sexual function. Owing to its regenerative and healing properties, cord blood platelet-rich plasma (CB-PRP) may represent an efficacious supplementary therapy, to be administered following first line treatment with TCS.
