The human endometrium is a unique tissue undergoing important changes through the menstrual cycle. Under the exposure of different risk factors in a woman’s lifetime, normal endo-metrial tissue can give rise to multiple pathologic conditions, including endometriosis and endo-metrial cancer. Etiology and pathophysiologic changes behind such conditions remain largely un-clear. This review summarizes the current knowledge of the pathophysiology of endometriosis and its potential role in the development of endometrial cancer from a molecular perspective. A better understanding of the molecular basis of endometriosis and its role in the development of endome-trial pathology will improve the approach to clinical management.
