title: [Early complications and effectiveness of abortion induction with PG F2 alpha].
abstract: Early morbidity was studied in 466 primigravidae, following induced abortion by intermittent intra-uterine extra-amniotic application of PG F2 alpha. The rate of inflammatory complications was reduced from 8.2 to 3.4 per cent by reduced indwelling of the intra-uterine application probe. Correlations were found to exist also between time and method to complete interruption and infectious morbidity. Variation in application time depressed the number of incomplete abortions and called more often for additional mechanical dilatation of the cervix. The modified method proved to be sufficiently effective, the more as cost, need for personnel, and inflammatory morbidity were favourably affected.
