Two Cases of Thromboembolic Disease Associated with Oral Contraceptives

Abstract

Recording the results by age-groups for each sex (see Table ) showed a higher proportion of normals for females, and this is most marked for the age-group of 11 to 20 years. In this last group almost two-thirds of the appendices removed were judged to be normal, whereas only a quarter of those from males of the same age-group were so judged.
