THE EFFECT OF DIETHYL STILBESTROL DIPROPRIONATEON ENDOMETRIAL TRANSPLANTS

Abstract

Uniformly successful transplantations of endometrium were accomplished in 10 adult [female] chinchilla rabbits utilizing mesenteric and peritoneal transplants of estrogenically (diethyl stilbestrol diproprionate) "primed" endometrium. Under the influence of massive dosage of diethyl stilbestrol diproprionate (975.000 I.U. and 1,125,000 I.U.) these transplants developed into large cystic masses, which contained viable endometrium. No tendency toward invasive or increased cellular activity was evidenced in these transplants.
