title: [Maternal mortality in Bulgaria during the period 1964-1990].
abstract: "An exhaustive study on...mortality from complications of pregnancy, child birth and puerperium has been conducted.  A steady and significant reduction of the maternal mortality in Bulgaria during the period 1964-1990 has been established.... The author points out the significant proportion of spontaneous and illegal abortions, relating it to the restrictive regime...abolished only in 1990, as well as to the long lasting minimal availability of contemporary contraceptives in Bulgaria."
