    Summary: The extended contents of this second edition reflect the growing spectrum of topics in pediatric and adolescent gynecology. Like its predecessor, this book addresses the most common gynecological problems encountered in childhood medicine, including endocrinological and surgical aspects. New chapters place particular emphasis on an update of technological aspects such as ultrasound, molecular genetics, surgery in sex disorders and new problems encountered in reproductive medicine. The book opens with a comprehensive description of the background of infant and adolescent gynecology and diagnostic tools. Several chapters are devoted to the various pathologies encountered in prepubertal and adolescent girls. Contemporary social issues such as sexual abuse, sexually transmitted diseases, contraception for teenagers and teenage pregnancy are also discussed in detail. Presenting a clear plan for clinical management and treatment of frequently encountered problems in prepubertal and adolescent girls, this book should be read by pediatricians, endocrinologists, gynecologists and family practitioners.

    The DBA/2 mice were treated with 4 successive subcutaneous injections of rabbit anti-theta-gammaglobulin and the histology of the axillary lymph nodes was studied 1, 2, 4, 7, 14 and 21 days after the last dose. The histology of the lymph nodes was assessed according to the standardized reporting system of Cottier et al. (1973). The histologic findings were compared with those found in mice treated with anti-thymus-gammaglobulin, normal rabbit gammaglobulin and those in untreated DBA/2 mice. Anti-theta-gammaglobulin was found to be a potent suppressor of the small lymphocytes in the lymph node paracortical areas. At the same time, it elicited a strong humoral immune response in the nodes manifested as proliferation of large pyroninophilic cells and plasma cells in the medulla and germinal centers. The standardized reporting system of Cottier et al. was found to be extremely suitable for assessing the histology of the experimental animals' lymph nodes and its acceptance into general use is strongly advocated.
