Ultrasound findings of endometriosis

Bladder Endometriosis: Ultrasound and MRI Findings

Bladder endometriosis is a rare cause of a localized bladder mass, potentially mimicking a neoplasm at cross-sectional imaging. We present the case of a patient with cyclic pelvic pain and urinary symptoms secondary to bladder endometriosis, with characteristic pelvic ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging findings. Potential pathological mechanisms are discussed.

I-42: Cardinal Manifestations of Endometriosis Transvaginal Ultrasound

Endometriosis is a common benign gynecologic disorder, defined by endometrial glands and stroma outside of the endometrial cavity. The three primary types of endometriosis are superficial peritoneal lesions, ovarian endometriomas, and deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE).Although laparoscopy continues to be the gold standard for the diagnosis of endometriosis, transvaginal ultrasonography show...

Evaluation of Diagnostic Visual Findings at Laparoscopy in Endometriosis

Background Endometriosis has been widely implicated as one of the causes of chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea and infertility. The purpose of our study was to define the presumed correlation between visual and histologic diagnostic features of endometriosis based on the peritoneal findings identified in laparoscopy as a diagnostic trial with a standardized technique. So, all the specimens inclu...

MR imaging findings of endometriosis at 3Tesla

Pleural endometriosis: findings on magnetic resonance imaging.

Endometriosis is a benign gynecological disorder associated with pelvic pain and infertility, primarily affecting women of reproductive age. Thoracic endometriosis affects the pulmonary parenchyma or pleura. We report the cases of two patients with pleural endometriosis who presented with recurrent pneumothorax. In both cases, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the chest showed right hydropneu...
