Current Advances in Endometriosis: An Update

Dear Colleagues,

Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases. Despite its benign nature, it is associated with a considerable clinical, social, and financial burden on the healthcare system, mainly due to its undetectability and chronic course. Despite its high prevalence and cost and many published articles, the pathogenesis of endometriosis remains controversial due to a lack of robust evidence. Furthermore, despite current research efforts, diagnosis and treatment options remain difficult.

This Special Issue’s aim is to create a collection of manuscripts that provide an overview of current evidence-based knowledge on endometriosis, covering all important endometriosis and adenomyosis topics, including diagnosis, classification systems, and conservative and surgical therapies for pain and infertility. We also welcome scholars and experts to contribute original research, review articles, or meta-analyses dealing with less common topics, such as endometriosis in adolescence and menopause or outside the pelvis, primary and secondary prevention strategies, new non-invasive diagnostic approaches, or complementary and alternative therapies.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
