Clinical characteristics of catamenial and non‐catamenial thoracic endometriosis‐related pneumothorax
Open accessAbstract
Background and objective: A major pathogenic factor for catamenial pneumothorax is thoracic endometriosis. However, thoracic endometriosis‐related pneumothorax (TERP) can develop as either catamenial or non‐catamenial pneumothorax (CP). Therefore, the aim of this study was to elucidate the clinical differences between catamenial and non‐catamenial TERP. Methods: The clinical and pathological data in female patients who underwent video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery at the Pneumothorax Research Center during an 8‐year period were retrospectively reviewed. This study included 150 female patients with surgico‐pathologically confirmed TERP. The subjects were divided into two groups, those having all of the pneumothorax episodes in the catamenial period (CP group) and those who did not (non‐CP group). We compared the clinical characteristics and surgico‐pathological findings between these two groups. Results: Of the 150 TERP patients, 55 (36.7%) were classified in the CP group, and 95 (63.3%) in the non‐CP group. In regard to the locations of endometriosis, all TERP patients had diaphragmatic endometriosis, while pleural implantation was recognized in 34 of the 55 (61.8%) patients in the CP group and 42 of the 95 (44.2%) patients in the non‐CP group (P < 0.05). Conclusions: A significant difference in the proportion of patients with pleural endometriosis was observed between catamenial and non‐catamenial TERP. The ectopic sites of the endometriosis may be responsible for the timing of the pneumothorax episodes.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
