Two Previously Unemphasized Features of Endometriosis: Micronodular Stromal Endometriosis and Endometriosis with Stromal Elastosis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This report draws attention to two unusual features of the stromal component of endometriosis that can create problems in diagnosis. One of these is the exclusive presence of endometriotic stroma, so-called stromal endometriosis, that can occasionally take the form of microscopic nodules of endometriotic stroma on the pelvic peritoneum and other locations. This finding, which we refer to as a micronodular stromal endometriosis, can be overlooked entirely or lead to confusion with peritoneal involvement by low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma. The other finding we describe is the presence of a prominent elastotic stromal response to endometriosis that can occasionally obscure or even focally obliterate the typical endometriotic stroma. This finding, although nonspecific, can be a diagnostic clue to the presence of endometriosis, especially when accompanied by the presence of the typical endometriod glands of that lesion.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
