[Characteristics of the course of pregnancy and labor in women with Cushing's syndrome and the condition of their progeny].

An analysis of gestational and obstetric histories of 40 women with Cushing's disease has shown that pregnancy is contraindicated during an active phase or partial clinical remission of the disease. Pregnancy is permissible at a prolonged time following the onset of a stable clinical and hormonal remission, bilateral total adrenalectomy and compensation of chronic adrenal insufficiency. No specific therapy is required in the former situation. The adrenalectomized patients need an intensification of replacement therapy and switch to parenteral glucocorticoids ante-, intra- and postpartum. Twenty infants of mothers with Cushing's disease were examined and found to have a normal clinical and endocrine status.

[Tactics of examining patients with unpalpable testis redux].

As many as 117 patients with inpalpable testis redux were examined. They had undergone selective testicular venography with measurements of testosterone content in random blood samples after stimulation with human chorionic gonadotropin. The data obtained during all-round investigation make it possible to estimate the morphological status of the testes and their functional reserves. This forms the basis for recommending an optimal treatment method in each specific case of inpalpable testis redux.

[Contents of gonadotropic and sex hormones in the blood of healthy children].

The blood content of follicle-stimulating, luteinizing hormones, prolactin, testosterone and estradiol was measured in 343 normal children (181 boys and 162 girls) aged 1 month to 16 years by radioimmunoassay with the aid of standard commercial kits. Standardized age- and sex-associated indicators have been elaborated. The time-course of changes in the hormonal content during puberty has been characterized.

[State of the nervous systems and cerebral vessels in several forms of dwarfism].

The authors studied the state of the nervous system in 29 patients with hypophyseal and 25 patients with cerebral nanism. In was demonstrated that in cerebral nanism, unlike hypophyseal, there are signs of the nervous system lesions on different levels. A REG study of the state of cerebral vessels in 14 patients with hypophyseal and 17 patients with cerebral nanism demonstrated that in patients with hypophyseal nanism the vascular condition practically did not differ from normal children of the same age, while in cerebral nanism there was an irregularity of the rheographic waves, an increased cerebral-vascular tone and a significant intrahemispheric asymmetry of the pulse blood flow. These data may be used for differential diagnosis of hypophyseal and cerebral nanism.
