Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The management of 58 failed midtrimester primary abortion procedures by vaginal uterine evacuation is described. The indications, technic, and complications of this procedure are presented. This method was the only means of managing failed primary abortion over a 3-year period in which 2045 elective midtrimester abortions were performed. With the development of experience this technic offers significant advantages over other procedures, such as hysterotomy, in the management of such patients.
