Abstract
The presence and number of mast cells and their relationship to other inflammatory cells were investigated in smears from intrauterine contraceptive devices. The results obtained suggest a possible role of mast cells in the mechanism of action of intrauterine contraceptive devices, on the basis of the peculiar known functions of mast cells.
