A.J. van der Meulen

Abstract

A case of giant hypertrophic breasts is described, occurring during a fifth pregnancy and while the patient was receiving treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis. Regression to normal proportions took place after the termination of pregnancy and after antituberculosis treatment, which consisted of INH-containing Thiazina tablets, had been discontinued.
