Abstrakt: A case of maternal virilization associated with bilateral luteomas of pregnancy is described. Urinary 17-ketosteroids and plasma testosterone fell from markedly abnormal values to normal limits within 2 weeks of delivery. However, symptoms of virilization persisted in the postpartum state. A possible relation between polycystic ovarian syndrome in the nonpregnant state and luteoma of pregnancy is proposed.
