Abstract
The aim of the present study, involving 463 women of reproductive age, was to evaluate for the first time the relationship between endometriosis, endometriosis-related infertility, and a recently described functional polymorphism in the ALOX15 gene, reported to be essential for implantation. In our study population, ALOX15 -292 C/T was not correlated either with the risk of developing an endometriosis or with the risk of infertility. © 2009 American Society for Reproductive Medicine.
