[Simmonds-Sheehan syndrome].
A woman of 30 with Simmonds--Sheehan syndrome is described that developed after delivery by vacuum-extraction of the fetus, due to powerless labour. The clinical picture was dominated by suprarenal cortical insufficiency, manifested with pains in the abdomen, vomiting, hypotonia and severe asthenic-adynamic syndrome. The substitutional hormonal treatment completely restored the general state and the working capacity of the patient.
