Three patients with oligomenorrhoea and hirsutism thought to have the polycystic ovary syndrome were found to have only one ovarian cyst. Endocrine findings were similar to those found in the polycystic syndrome, but apart from the single cyst the ovaries were histologically normal; a biopsy specimen of a cyst showed normal follicular appearances and no evidence of luteinisation. These cysts may be the cause of this condition, producing abnormal amounts of ovarian steroids which modify the pituitary response. Further studies are needed, however, to determine this possibility.
三名被认为患有多囊卵巢综合征的月经过少和多毛患者被发现仅有一个卵巢囊肿。内分泌检查结果与多囊综合征患者相似，但除了单个囊肿外，卵巢组织学上正常；囊肿活检标本显示卵泡外观正常，无黄素化迹象。这些囊肿可能是导致这种情况的原因，产生异常量的卵巢类固醇，从而改变垂体反应。然而，需要进一步研究来确定这种可能性。
