Virilization Associated With Bilateral Luteomas of Pregnancy

STEVEN POLANSKY, MD, ELISE W. DEPAPP, MD and EDWARD B. OGDEN, MD

From the Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Pathology, University of Rochester, Strong Memorial Hospital, Rochester, New York.

A case of maternal virilization associated with bilateral luteomas of pregnancy is described. Urinary 17-ketosteroids and plasma testosterone fell from markedly abnormal values to normal limits within 2 weeks of delivery. However, symptoms of virilization persisted in the postpartum state. A possible relation between polycystic ovarian syndrome in the nonpregnant state and luteoma of pregnancy is proposed.
