Is There a Benefit to Culturing Intra-Uterine Devices in Pelvic Inflammatory Disease?

abstract：:Connective tissue of human ovarian capsule with polycystic ovarian disease (PCO) is analyzed. The connective tissue components of the capsule were found to mainly consist of type I collagen and acid glycosaminoglycans, such as dermatan sulfate, heparan sulfate, and chondroitin 4- and 6-sulfate. Although their concentr...
