follicles plugged but not distended. 
In right ovary there were two un-

Tn the right ovary some of the ova in 
the large follicles were in the first 
maturation spindle stage, others had 
not reached that stage.

1-271 061 000 mm. 3 , With ovum with 
first maturation spindle and a second 
follicle slightly smaller and degenerate.
