The authors describe a case of a congenital Mullerian anomaly, uterus unicornis with missing right fallopian tube. An in Vitro Fertilization Pre-Embryo Transfer (IVF-ET) procedure was done and presently is known that the patient has left fallopian tube and left ovary, two kidneys, and right ovary is missing. No diagnostic laparoscopy and hysteroscopy were done, only hysterosalpingography (HSG) ...

Adnexal torsion may occur in girls and adolescents. Often it is associated with ovarian diseases resulting in ovarian enlargement. Adnexal torsion may involve the ovary, fallopian tube or both, and the main sympton is acute pelvic pain. An 8-year-old girl complaining of acute pelvic and abdominal pain, who was previously diagnosed with precocious puberty and who received treatment with a GnRH a...

Ornithine decarboxylase, a critical regulatory enzyme for polyamine biosynthesis, is highly inducible by growth-promoting stimuli in mouse epidermis but the enzyme level is only transiently elevated due to rapid turnover of the protein. Here we report that constitutive overexpression of the enzyme in the skin of transgenic mice causes several phenotypic abnormalities. Effects observed include d...

In recent years, there have been published clinical reports dealing with cysts or tumors of the odontogenic character the extract of which revealed pathologic keratinizing or calcifying changes in the light of histopathologic examination Cl, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12). These pathologic changes are said to give quite different histopathologic findings from those of the radicular cyst, follicular cyst ...

BACKGROUND The formation of functional ovarian cysts has been recognized as one of the side effects of GnRH agonist administration. The formation of cysts during IVF treatment may be of no clinical significance or may negatively influence its outcome. The objective of this study was to determine the incidence of ovarian cyst formation following GnRH agonist administration and to examine their e...

This study was carried out to assess the different ovarian transplantation sites after short-time autografting. Female rats were randomized into five groups, with six rats in each group, including control (intact), cervical subcutaneous transplanted (CST), back subcutaneous transplanted (BST), subfascial transplanted (SFT) and intramuscular transplanted (IMT) groups. In all experimental groups,...

Inhibin and activin are structurally related dimeric peptide hormones and are members of the TGFsuperfamily of proteins. In the accompanying paper, we describe transgenic mice that overexpress the inhibin -subunit gene from a metallothionein-I promoter (MT) and examine the effects of the MTtransgene on gonadotropin levels and fertility. To characterize the effects of increased inhibin -subunit ...

1 of 3 DESCRIPTION An 18-year-old female presented to the emergency room complaining of atypical pain in the right hypocondrium. Clinical examination revealed the presence of an extensive mass in the right abdomen. Transvaginal ultrasonography (TVUS) detected the presence of a large anechoic, multilocular lesion (16×12×15 cm, with more than fi ve locules), with septums <3 mm and colour score 1 ...
