[Radioimmunologic studies on serum gonadotropic hormones during oral contraception].

In 10 women serum FSH- and LH-concentrations (radioimmunoassay) were measured daily throughout a complete cycle. 2 patients exhibited untreated biphasic menstrual cycles. 2 women were under the treatment of a combined estrogen - progestagen preparation, 1 woman was taking a sequential preparation, and 5 patients were treated with a weekly dose of a recently developed depot - estrogen (ethinylestradiolsulfonate). While the untreated women showed typical serum FSH-and LH-patterns characteristic of the biphasic menstrual cycle, patients on combined therapy were found to have a continuous low FSH- and LH-level except in the postmenstrual phase of the cycle, in which the values were slightly elevated. Serum-FSH-concentration in the woman on the sequential preparation remained constant throughout the treatment peroid, while serum LH-pattern showed multiple peaks. In the same manner, serum LH-patterns in women on the weekly depot- estrogen regimen were characterized by nearly regularly appearing LH-peaks, which seemed to be correlated with the estrogen intake. The cause and clinical significance of these findings are discussed.

[Objective tinnitus caused by arteriovenous malformations in the region of transverse and signoid sinus (author's transl)].

Surgical problems concerning the treatment of objective tinnitus caused by arteriovenous malformations of the posterior fossa are discussed. Angiographies and clinical signs of seven patients are reported. In two cases the operative procedure of Hugosson and Bergstroöm was sucessful. In principle the transverse and sigmoid sinus are exposed and separated from the arterial shunts.
