Summary

Purpose of this study is to evaluate stem cell expression (SCE) in endometriotic (E) and non endometriotic ovarian and endometrial tissues.

Detailed description

This study was conducted on 40 women at Al-Azhar University Hospitals. They are divided into two equal groups, group 1 with ovarian endometrioma and group 2 with normal ovary. Ovarian and endometrial samples were evaluated by hematoxlin \& eosin for histopathology (HP) and of oct-4 for immunohistochemistry (IH) for SCE. Evaluation of IH parameters revealed that the most important factors for evaluating SC were arranged as score ( Edessy Stem Cell Score=ESS).
