Abstract
A lot has been written about the abnormalities seen in children born to women treated with distilbene during pregnancy. The author reviews the current state of the certainties and the doubts. It seems that the increased number of miscarriages, extra-uterine pregnancies and perinatal deaths are probably due to the maternal treatment which is also responsible for semen abnormalities.Entities:
