Purpose: The aim of this study was to clarify the role of blood in the early stage of development of endometriotic lesions by developing a syngeneic transplantation model using immunocompetent mice.
Methods: Endometriotic lesions were induced in C57BL/6 mice by an intraperitoneal injection of endometrial fragments plus saline or endometrial fragments plus blood. Some endometrial fragments plus blood were injected with heparin, hirudin or tissue plasminogen activator (tPA).
