Lysine vasopressin and a long-acting analogue N alpha-triglycyl-lysine vasopressin were compared in a prospective randomized double-blind study including 71 women undergoing cold knife conization of the uterine cervix. Hemodynamic and hemostatic variables were studied. N alpha-triglycyl-lysine vasopressin had the following advantages over lysine vasopressin: it gave significantly less skin pallor, becoming evident at a later stage during the operation. The diastolic blood pressure was significantly lower, as also was the incidence of postoperative hemorrhages. Factor VIII related antigen was lower. On the other hand reduction in heart rate (values before conization compared with values during conization) was more pronounced when N alpha-triglycyl-lysine vasopressin was used, but there was no difference in absolute values between the two groups during conization.

The effect of electric stimulation of the uterine cervix on vasopressin and prolactin secretions was investigated in 16 patients with uterine myomas and/or hypermenorrhea. One month after hysterectomy a similar stimulation was induced near the fornix of the vagina. Particularly the first test also seemed to be a considerable psychic stress for the patients. The stimulation did not cause any significant changes in plasma vasopressin and prolactin concentrations.

In a 59-year-old woman suffering from the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion, a small cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix was detected. The tumor was immunoreactive for antidiuretic hormone as well as for neuron specific enolase, chromogranin A, and Leu-7, but not vimentin. Electron microscopic examination of the tumor revealed neurosecretory granules. To our knowledge, this is only the second report of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion with small cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix and the first one confirmed immunohistopathologically.

Small cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix is rare. It is estimated that 10% of patients with small-cell lung cancer have syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) and hyponatremia has been reported to be significantly associated with a poor prognosis. A proportion of small cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix exhibit neuroendocrine characteristics as revealed by immunohistochemistry, However, cases presenting typical symptoms due to SIADH are extremely rare. This report of the SIADH of the uterine cervix is a rare case in the small cell carcinoma of the cervix presenting with tumor-associated paraneoplastic syndrome.
