Journal ArticleDOI
The effectiveness of hysteroscopy in improving pregnancy rates in subfertile women without other gynaecological symptoms: a systematic review
Jan Bosteels,Steven Weyers,Patrick Puttemans,Costas Panayotidis,Bruno van Herendael,Victor Gomel,Ben W.J. Mol,Chantal Mathieu,Thomas D'Hooghe +8 more
TL;DR: Scarce evidence on the effectiveness of hysteroscopic surgery in subfertile women with polyps, fibroids, septate uterus or intrauterine adhesions indicates a potential benefit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Placental bed research: I. The placental bed: from spiral arteries remodeling to the great obstetrical syndromes.
TL;DR: Investigating the pathophysiology of the placental bed found that preeclampsia is associated with defective or absent transformation of the myometrial segment of the uteroplacental arteries, and the pathology and pathogenetic mechanisms underlying the impairment of the physiological vascular changes were clarified.
Journal ArticleDOI
The endoscopic localization of endometrial implants in the ovarian chocolate cyst
TL;DR: Ovarioscopy is proposed as a useful tool to differentiate in doubtful cases between a hemorrhagic functional and an endometriotic cyst and to select the sites for biopsies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential role of endometrial stem/progenitor cells in the pathogenesis of early-onset endometriosis
Caroline E. Gargett,Kjiana Elkje Schwab,Jan J. Brosens,Patrick Puttemans,Giuseppe Benagiano,Ivo Brosens +5 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that stem/progenitor cells present in shedding endometrium may have a role in the pathogenesis of early-onset endometriosis through retrograde neonatal uterine bleeding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Belgian legislation and the effect of elective single embryo transfer on IVF outcome.
Sylvie Gordts,Rudi Campo,Patrick Puttemans,Ivo Brosens,M Valkenburg,J Norre,M Renier,D Coeman +7 more
