Effect of a new oral antiandrogen-estrogen combination on the endometrium: histological and ultrastructural scanning electron microscopy study.

Endometrial biopsies were obtained in 12 volunteers between 18 and 35 years old who had used SHB 209 AE oral contraceptive during the previous six months. Three main types of endometrial patterns were observed: proliferative, very similar to a normal proliferative phase; early secretory: similar to early postovulatory endometrium; late secretory: characterized by diffuse predecidual changes in the stroma. At SEM after one week a great prevalence of nonciliated cells was observed. During the 2nd and the 3rd week, the endometrial surface appears still flattened with scanty glandular outlets.

Conservative surgical treatment of endometriosis.

In the period 1979-1983, 102 patients with endometriosis underwent conservative surgery at Ia Clinica Ostetrica e Ginecologica, Milan University. Treatment indications, techniques and results are presented. 34.3% of the women were in stage I, 51% in stage II and 14.7% in stage III of the American Fertility Society classification. Postoperatively, the incidence of dysmenorrhea fell from 63.7% to 15.7%, deep dyspareunia from 53.3% to 17.6% and chronic pelvic pain 21.6% to 11.8%. In 1-6 years' follow-up of the 53 women wanting children, the postoperative birth-rate was 68.3% in stage I patients, 59% in stage II and 37.5% in stage III. Endometriosis treatment is still only symptomatic, and conservative surgery, using atraumatic procedures, should aim at restoring fertility and resolving pain symptomatology.

Endometrial patterns in malformed uteri.

In the 12 subsep uteri the endometrium covering the septum was studied using light microscopy, electronic scanning microscopy and electronic transmission microscopy for the purpose of determining if it should be considered a reason for inadequate implantation and therefore justify an anomalous evolution of pregnancy. The results show that compared with a normal endometrium there is only a slight difference with the basal state. This alteration could however negatively influence the stages of development following implantation and particularly the structure of the maternal-fetal relationships which preclude placentation.

The significance of scanning electron microscopy findings from the endosalpinx in tubal pregnancies.

Authors report the endosalpingeal scanning electron microscopy (S.E.M.) findings in eleven tubes removed for ectopic pregnancies. The first aim of this study is to verify whether there is a corresponding morphological common aspect in all cases. The second aim is that of locating, with the aid of S.E.M. findings, some prognostic indications for predicting the future fertility of the patient.
