子宫内膜异位症(简称内异症)的病因和发病机理迄今不明。近10年研究结果表明,腹腔液中多种活性物质可能在其发生过程中有决定性意义。 对74例内异症患者腹腔液中的肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)进行测定,并分3组:陈旧性或无活性腹膜内异症组(27例),鲜红色、活性内异症组(34例)和重度广泛性内异症组,即rAFS Ⅲ、Ⅳ期患者(13例)。另20例腹腔镜检查无异常者为对照组。 The etiology and pathogenesis of endometriosis (referred to as endometriosis) so far unknown. Nearly 10 years of research results show that a variety of active substances in peritoneal fluid may be decisive in its occurrence. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in peritoneal fluid of 74 patients with endometriosis were measured and divided into 3 groups: old or inactive intraperitoneal group (27 cases), bright red, active endometriosis Group (34 cases) and severe generalized endometriosis group, rAFS Ⅲ, Ⅳ patients (13 cases). The other 20 cases without laparoscopic abnormalities were control group.
