title: [Pregnancy and delivery after traumatic panhypopituitarism].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  We describe a case of 23 years old woman who, with a history of car accident at the age of 11 and severe head injury, attended our Center of Reproductive Medicine complaining of primary infertility. The accident preceded menarche and the development of inner genitalia (uterus 46 mm, cervix:corpus ratio 1:1) as well as secondary sexual development was not fully accomplished. Ovarian failure was accompanied by amenorrhea, if not substituted. Under replacement therapy regular menstruation was established. Basal hormonal levels was extremely low (FSH and LH 0.2-0.3 IU/l, PRL 0.5 ng/ml, estrogens 0.08 nmol/l, PRGE was not detected). With oral administration of micronized estradiol (Check et al., 2001) endometrial thickness of 9 mm was achieved. All of five retrieved oocytes were fertilized with partner sperm (normospermy) and three embryos were transferred. Already the first attempt was successful. Patient suffered with transitional anorexia and vomiting which could be handled conservatively. Hormonals level were normal. Patient substituted with Hydrocortison and Euthyrox. On January 2, 2003 the pregnancy was finished by caesarian section, one week before the delivery term (girl, 2970, Apgar score 10-10-10).
