[Interruption of pregnancy in alcoholic women (author's transl)].
Basing on previous experience, with alcohol embryopathy the authors recommended interruption of pregnancy in three chronic alcoholics, two of whom were in the chronic phase and one in the critical phase of alcohol addiction. All the three fetuses were hypertrophic, two severely malformed. In the authors' opinion there is eugenically speaking an absolute indication of interruption of pregnancy in alcoholics in the chronic phase of addiction. In women who are in the critical phase of addiction, each case requires close scrutiny, whereas interruption is not indicated from the eugenic aspect in women in the prodromal stage.
