[Toxoplasmosis and pregnancy. Evaluation of 2 years of prevention of congenital toxoplasmosis in the maternity ward of Hôpital Saint-Antoine (1973-1974)].

The authors report the results of prophylaxis of congenital toxoplasmosis in a maternity hospital in Paris for a two years period (1973-1974). 6269 pregnant women were surveyed. 18 toxoplasmosis were detected in evolution at the first prenatal examination, 10 seroconversions were identified among the first examination antibody negative women, when re-examined during the pregnancy. 25 of these 28 women were treated regularly. The seroconversions of the 3 other women were detected only at delivery. In addition 25 women were treated because of high antibody titers (Dye-Test greater than or equal to 300. U.I/ml). 6 congenital toxoplasmosis, 2 of them were manifest, were observed among the children whose mothers were treated for confirmed toxoplasmosis. The extremely low level of seroconversions may be in relation to hygienic and dietetic prescriptions. The difficulties of this prophylaxis are analysed: they are due to studied population and to problems of interpretation or serologic examinations.

Male reproductive potential after MOPP therapy for Hodgkin's disease: a long-term survey.

The testicular function of 47 men who had been treated by MOPP chemotherapy for a Hodgkin's disease was studied in a long-term survey. Azoospermia was constant during at least 14 months after completion of the treatment. After a follow-up period of 89.4 +/- 54.7 months, 26 men were still azoospermic. No correlation could be found between the therapeutic regimen and the results of semen analysis. For the same treatment, some men recovered spermatogenesis within 5 years, others after more than 10 years while some were still azoospermic after 20 years. However, the association of infra-diaphragmatic irradiation to high dose MOPP therapy had a profound detrimental effect on spermatogenesis: only 3/13 men recovered. Sperm recovery was often incomplete: 17/21 men had a sperm count below 20 million ml-1. Yet, spontaneous pregnancies were obtained with severe oligozoospermia: only 1/11 sperm counts performed close to fertilization exceeded 20 million ml-1, and 8 were below 5 millions ml-1. FSH failed to be either a sensitive or a specific marker of sperm recovery, a discrepancy between FSH level and spermiogram being noticed in 18.2% of cases.
