[History of the Rostock University Gynecology Clinic 1887-1997: what remains?].
110 years after the opening of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, which is still functioning, a historical review about those scientific facts published during these years and continuing to do so up to now is presented. Scientific highlights in obstetrics and gynaecology created in Rostock are the publication by Friedrich Schatz on intrauterine tocography, the anatomic description of the menstrual cycle by Robert Schröder, and the studies by Helmut Kyank on the physiology and pathophysiology of pregnancy, especially pre-eclampsia and eclampsia.
