title: [Changes in the uterus following treatment of the mother with diethylstilbestrol ("DES-daughter")].
abstract: In the fifties and sixties pregnant women with a history of habitual abortions or premature deliveries were treated with DES (diethylstilboestrol). This treatment can lead to certain pathognomonic uterine changes in the daughters, that are recognizable on hysterosalpingographs. Because of the obstetric consequences, it is important to interpret these changes correctly. The findings in 7 patients are described. As most of the DES-daughters are now coming into reproductive age, gynecologists and radiologists will be confronted more frequently with their specific problems.
