[Routine examinations in the densitometry department].

The authors describe observations on the basis of the high number of patients at their osteodensitometry clinic. They found that in ankylosing spondylitis vertebral osteodensity would not be practical to be taken into account for estimating osteopenia. They suggest the "slicing" method of the 4th lumbar vertebra, taking into consideration the middle slice only. The second part of their study proved that daughters of their patients, suffering from osteoporosis with fractured vertebra, had significantly lower osteodensity as compared with the age and menstrual cycle-matched controls.

[Determination of diminished bone mineral density in ankylosing spondylitis].

Bone mineral density was determined by DEXA method on the lumbal spine and on the femoral neck, on 44 patients suffering from ankylosing spondylitis. It was established that the osteopenie (low bone mineral density) was covered by the syndesmophytes. The comparative measurement showed a lower bone mineral density for patients, who don't have syndesmophytes on the L II-IV. vertebraes.

[Fertility of females with abnormalities of the uterus].

In 209 females examined with hysterosalpingography indications for examination were fertility disturbances in 131 cases, inspection of operation scar after caesarean section in 42 cases, repeated failure of intrauterine device in 9 cases and other causes in 27 cases. Development malformations of the uterus were observed in 54 females (25.8%), which comprised 40 cases with fertility malfunctions and 14 cases who had been delivered of before. The high percentage of women, who, in spite of malformations of the uterus, were delivered either spontaneously or by means of the caesarean section of live children leads to the following conclusions: 1. The occurrence of uterine malformations is more frequent than the incidence in women examined because of fertility malfunctions would indicate. 2. Uterine malformations in women who had been delivered were not always diagnosed. 3. The occurrence of repeated failure of intrauterine device coincides conspicuously with the occurrence of uterine malformations. The diagnosis of developmental malformations of the uterus cannot be always the cause of infertility.
