Objective: The aim of study was to present the optimal laparoscopic treatment of the ovarian endometriotic cysts in patients who had been treated of sterility and to present the success of the sterility treatment.
Methods: Ovarian endometriotic cysts do not have proper reaction to hormonal supressive therapy and surgical treatment is required. Laparoscopic cystectomy of ovarian endometriotic cysts using electrocision was performed in 45 patients who previously underwent laboratory tests specific for that type of patients, as well as sperm analysis of their husbands. At the same time, potency test of the uterine tubes was performed.
Results: 34 patients had normal uterine tubes potency and normal semen analysis of their husbands. Out of 34 patients, 12 (35%) spontaneously got pregnant during 12 months following laparoscopic treatment. At the same period of 12 months, in 6 (13,3 %) patients recurrent ovarian cysts were discovered.
Conclusion: Laparoscopic cystectomy of ovarian endometriotic cysts is efficient method of preserving fertility in certain number of patients. Although the laparoscopic treatment may reduce ovarian reserve, it presents a method of choice in therapy of ovarian endometriotic cysts.

ALKBH5 promotes autophagy and progression by mediating m6A methylation of lncRNA UBOX5-AS1 in endometriosis.

Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation modification have recently been suggested as potential functional modulators in ovarian endometriosis, however, the function and mechanism of m6A-modified lncRNA in ovarian endometriosis remain poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrated that lncRNA UBOX5-AS1 expression was significantly elevated in ovarian endometriosis tissue and primary ectopic endometrial stromal cells. The expression of lncRNA UBOX5-AS1, which has m6A modifications, was highly positively correlated with demethylase Alk B homologous protein 5 (ALKBH5) expression and autophagy.

A 41-year-old premenopausal woman presented to our hospital with lower abdominal distention and epigastralgia. An ovarian endometriotic cyst was noted when she was 30 years, and was only followed up until she was 36 years. Suspecting rupture of an ovarian tumor, left adnexectomy was performed.

Endometriosis affects about 10 percent women in the reproductive age group globally and approximately 42 million in India. Managing the patient's pain symptoms associated with endometriosis appears to be the cornerstone in endometriosis disease management. The ideal medical treatment in endometriosis would be suppressing estradiol enough to alleviate symptoms of endometriosis but maintain sufficient levels to mitigate hypoestrogenic side effects.

Ovarian hemorrhage during antithrombotic therapy is sometimes difficult to manage. A 38-year-old woman, diagnosed with Marfan syndrome and implanted with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) and taking aspirin and warfarin potassium, had a history of right adnexal oophorectomy via open surgery for a right ovarian hemorrhage at the age of 35 years. Thereafer, she had been treated with dienogest to suppress ovulation as much as possible.

Article Synopsis
- Endometriosis is characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, classified into three types: superficial, ovarian endometrioma, and deep infiltrating disease, and can affect various areas beyond the pelvis.
- Diagnosis typically involves a combination of symptom assessment, physical exams, imaging tests, and ultimately requires tissue confirmation for a definitive diagnosis.
- Treatment options range from medical management focused on symptom relief to surgical interventions, with a preference for excision of lesions and a multidisciplinary approach for more severe cases to enhance long-term outcomes.
