[Induction of second trimester abortion by infusion of intraamniotic hypertonic and extraamniotic physiological saline solution (author's transl)].
In a group of 84 women in the second trimester of pregnancy abortion was induced by intramniotic transabdominal instillation of 20 per cent NaCl. In a second group of 91 women the abortion was induced by means of extraamniotic physiological infusion of saline solution. The only complication observed in the first group was an increasing fever. In the second group there were better results. The fetus abortion was complete and in a shorter time. We assume that the new method is the method of choice because it gives no complications and may be easily performed. It may be used also in cases of missed abortion or intrauterine fetal death.
