ABSTRACT
Our approach to taking care of 122 diabetic pregnant women was presented. At first, they were hospitalized in the Pathological Pregnancy Ward. An intensive insulin therapy (human insulin) was initiated and all the patients were educated. The pregnant appeared as an outpatient every fortnight within the first part of pregnancy and every seven to ten days in the second one. They were hospitalized for a few days in 12th and 24th week of pregnancy and from 36th/37th week until delivery. Unfortunately, their first arrival to our center was too late, usually with diabetes out of control. There were 3 miscarriages (2.4%), 111 newborns were in a satisfactory condition (91%), 4 died (3.3%), congenital malformations were found in four others (3.3%). A successful course of pregnancy was dependent upon a proper care taken of patients early enough, good cooperation with them and related with it satisfactory metabolic control of diabetes.

HSG examination was performed on 363 female patients diagnosed because of infertility. In 258 (71.8%) women primary infertility was recognized and in 105 (28.9%) secondary infertility. Normal anatomical state of Fallopian tube was observed in 65 (77.4%) patients with primary infertility and only in 19 (22.6%) with secondary infertility. Abnormal results of examination were discovered in altogether 279 (76.9%) diagnosed patients.

The range and nature of adhesions found out by means of laparoscopy was analysed in patients diagnosed because of infertility. 38% of patients had laparotomy performed previously. Adhesions concerned 47% of the reproductive organ, although in nearly the same percentage intestine and greater omentum were involved. In 13 (31%) patients occurrence of endometriosis focus was discovered. In the area of Fallopian tube--ovary there were most often non-vascularized, thin adhesions and solid adhesions in the area of Douglas sinus.

An inquiry was carried out among 185 women diagnosed because of infertility. The questionnaires included personal data, obstetric information from the past and information concerning earlier attempts at diagnosing and treating both partners. Authors of this article are of the opinion that infertile couples, especially from the country, decide only too late to find out the causes of the infertility. Taking into consideration the range of present day knowledge, the authors point out that highly specialized centres should deal with diagnosing and treating infertility.
