Abstract
Transplantation of an adrenal tissue culture from newborn pigs was per formed in patients with habitual abortions. The advantages of this met hod as compared to the traditional treatment with adrenocortical hormo nes consist in the absence of effects on the fetus and of side effects in pregnant women. Monitoring of the serum level of adrenocortical ho rmones is not required. Healthy children were born to 22 patients out of 23. Three clinical cases are described.
