title: [Pituitary gonadotropic function in uterine trophoblastic tumor].
abstract: A simultaneous determination of 3 gonadotropic hormones of the hypophysis (follitropin, lutronin and prolactin) using a radioimmunoassay in 33 patients with trophoblastic uterine tumors and 22 women on the 1st-8th day after normal delivery, has shown that there are not only significant differences in the nature of the secretion of hypophyseal gonadotropic hormones in pathology as compared to the normal postnatal period but also differences in different forms of trophoblastic tumors. These differences were characterized by a progressive, according to the severity of disease, independence between trophoblastic tissue function and gonadotropic function of the hypophysis. A marked suppression of follicle-stimulating function of the hypophysis after normal delivery decreased hydatidiform mole and trophoblastic tumors and was not observed in patients with chorioepithelioma of the uterus.
