Relation between coagulation parameters and pelvic adhesions in endometriosis / 中国实用妇科与产科杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation between coagulation parameters and pelvic adhesions in endometriosis.METHODS: The clinical data of 408 patients with endometriosis who underwent surgery in Women's Hospital School of Medicine Zhejiang University from June 2016 to February 2018 were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate the correlation between coagulation parameters and the severity of pelvic adhesions.RESULTS: In endometriosis cases,the levels of plasma fibrinogen(FIB)in patients with pelvic adhesions were significantly shorter than those without pelvic adhesions[median3.1 g/L(range2.7-4.5 g/L)vs. 2.8 g/L(range2.6-3.2 g/L),respectively;P0.05). FIB was positively correlated with pelvic adhesion scores(r=0.248,P<0.01).In the judgment of pelvic adhesion,the area under the curve(AUC)of FIB was 0.630,and the cut-off value was 2.87 g/L.The incidence of adhesions in patients with FIB greater than 2.87 g/L increased(χ2=15.4,P<0.01).CONCLUSION: Coagulation parameters was correlated with the pelvic adhesions in endometriosis,especially fibrinogen,which may help to judge the severity of pelvic adhesions caused by endometriosis.
