[Study of fertility after extrauterine pregnancy].

Out of a total of 139 cases of extra-uterine pregnancy operated between 1979 and 1983, 78 patients were regularly followed. In 47 women wanting to become pregnant, 18 remained sterile, 8 had a further extra-uterine pregnancy and 21 obtained an intra-uterine pregnancy. The results are analysed in terms of the past history and the treatment of the first extra-uterine pregnancy. These results are compared with the data in the literature.

[The effects of bromocriptine in normoprolactinemic anovulation and dysovulation: followed by pregnancy in 11 cases].

The authors report the results of a study of 40 patients with normal serum prolactin levels who were treated with bromocriptine for sterility secondary to ovulatory disturbances. This therapy restored normal ovulatory cycling in 62.5% of cases with subsequent pregnancy in 27.5% of cases, in particular in patients with primary infertility of long duration. The course of "latent" hyperprolactinemia (peak of TRH, repeated dosages of PRL) was discovered in only one out of two patients who responded to treatment. In patients with "non-latent" normal serum prolactin levels, bromocriptine's mechanism of action is not always clear.

[The extemporaneous examination: the decisive step in the surgical strategy in breast lesions].

Research into breast diseases is developing in all directions. In particular, there has been great progress in the fields of cytology, radiology, isotope studies, thermography and ultrasonography. The diversity of these methods reflects the complexity of the diagnosis. No one method is infallible. We therefore consider that the frozen section examination should be an integral part of a breast surgery. It should be the decisive step in the operative strategy, as breast surgery is associated with important consequences: re-operation is always difficult and a radical operation is irreversible. Frozen section examination can reduce these risks.

[Comparative study of the treatment of cervical dysplasias with the CO2 laser and electroresection with the diathermy loop].

The authors compared CO2 laser and the diathermy loop in the ambulatory treatment of 192 cases of cervical dysplasia. Clinical results were essentially equivalent (94.7% and 94.2% success rate respectively for laser and diathermy loop). When comparing the advantages and disadvantages of each technique, even though electroresection using the diathermy loop is a reliable method available to everyone, the ease in handling, exact precision, and comfort of laser render it the preferred method of treatment for cervicovaginal pathology in spite of its greater expense.

[Physiopathology of pregnancy-induced hypertension].

Even though multiple factors are involved in arterial blood pressure elevation, during pregnancy-induced hypertension normal physiologic processes are occurring in the uteroplacental unit. These appear probably very early in pregnancy. Treatment of pregnancy-induced hypertension at the present time is directed simply at lowering the blood pressure. It should be emphasized that only one placebo-controlled study has demonstrated a beneficial effect of antihypertensive treatment for the fetus in moderate pregnancy-induced hypertension. Future treatment very likely will be preventive, administered from the onset of pregnancy in a high-risk patient.
