Spontaneous abortion in perspective. A 7-year study.
Ten per cent of all pregnancies end in spontaneous abortion. Only by thorough history taking, physical examination and selected biochemical and biological investigations can potential causes of abortion be recognized and treated. The lesser known factors concerned with abortion are emphasized, and the role played by human chorionic gonadotrophin therapy in selected cases is considered.
