PURE vs. mixed clear cell ovarian carcinomas: Is there any impact on survival?
CONCLUSION: This retrospective study showed that although mixed type histological origin was associated with higher OS and DFS rates compared to pure type in patients with CCOC, the difference was not statistically significant. Advanced age and the presence of endometriosis was found to have a significant independent effect on OS and DFS and was associated with a worse prognosis. Overall, this study provides useful insights into the clinical characteristics of patients with CCOC and identifies important prognostic factors affecting survival.PMID:38518487 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejogrb.2024.03.021 (Source: Reproductive Biology)

Translocator protein expression and localization in human endometrium and endometriosis: A potential target for a noninvasive diagnosis?
Cell Biol Int. 2024 Mar 21. doi: 10.1002/cbin.12157. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe limitations of current imaging methods to detect small or superficial endometriotic lesions prompt the search for new molecular targets. TSPO is an 18 KDa protein located in the outer mitochondrial membrane, which can be traced by positron emission tomography (PET) using specific ligands. TSPO is located mostly in neurons and inflammatory sites outside the brain. We hypothesized that it might also be expressed in the human endometrium and endometrial-like tissue, being a target for molecular imaging of endometriosis. This prospective cro...

Ultrasound-guided erector spinae nerve block for relief of endometriosis pain in the emergency department
We report the case of a 23-year-old female with a past medical history of endometriosis who presented to a freestanding emergency department with a chief complaint of 10/10 pelvic pain on a numeric rating scale. She had tried non-steroidal inflammatory medications and heat with no success. The patient had medication intolerances to opioid analgesics and was given ketorolac intramuscularly with no relief of her pain. The emergency physician discussed and offered to perform an erector spinae plane nerve block (ESPB) for pain relief. Ultrasonography was utilized for visualization of landmarks with a curvilinear transducer; a ...

Endometriosis risk and hormonal contraceptive usage: A nationwide cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: The use of HCs at an early age and a failure to find a suitable HC were identified as warning signs of later receiving an endometriosis diagnosis. A longer duration of HC usage reduced the risk of receiving the diagnosis.PMID:38511416 | DOI:10.1111/1471-0528.17812 (Source: BJOG : An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology)
