[Cell-mediated immunity in myoma uteri measured by the leukocyte migration inhibition test (author's transl)]

The leukocyte migration inhibition test was performed on 56 patients hysterectomized on account of myoma. -- Despite low antigenicity of autologous myoma tissue significant differences in inhibitions of migration were observed depending on the extent of surgical radicality in the adnexal region. -- Non-inhibition of leukocyte migration in patients whose myomatous uterus alone was exstirpated is explained by the oestrogens produced in the remaining ovaries.
