[Formation of primary prostaglandins E1 and F2 alpha in the uterus and ovary. Studies on plasma concentrations in local blood vessels].

The blood vessels of uterus and ovary were prepared of 20 patients during abdominal hysteroophorectomy and blood samples were taken for determination of prostaglandins. -- Blood samples from vena cubitalis were taken as comparison example. -- The determination of prostaglandins was carried out radioimmunologically. -- The content of prostaglandins in the plasma of uterine vein for PGE 1 and PGF 2 alpha with 315 and 324 pg/ml is higher than the comparison concentration in the uterine artery and cubital vein. Venous concentration in the ovary for PGE 1 with 408 pg/ml and PGF 2 alpha with 677 pg/ml are increased in opposition to the control value.
