Intensive research into endometriosis over the last decade has failed to elucidate its aetiology and pathogenesis. There are uncertainties, too, regarding its diagnosis and management. Trends in endometriosis research in this period are reviewed with reference to histopathology, markers, immunology, peritoneal fluid biology, GnRH agonists and bone physiology. The research effort has never been more intense, but much remains to be clarified in the next decade.
过去十年对子宫内膜异位症的深入研究未能阐明其病因和发病机制。其诊断和治疗也存在不确定性。本文参考组织病理学、标志物、免疫学、腹腔液生物学、促性腺激素释放激素激动剂和骨生理学，综述了这一时期子宫内膜异位症的研究趋势。研究力度从未如此之大，但在未来十年仍有许多有待阐明的问题。
