[Pulmonary embolism and disseminated coagulopathy syndrome after first trimester termination of pregnancy--a case report].
We present a rare case report of first trimester termination of pregnancy by suction curettage because of missed abortion complicated by pulmonary thrombembolism and disseminated coagulopathy. The diagnosis was confirmed by clinical, sonographical and laboratory means. The relative risk of such complications after first trimester termination of pregnancy is discussed.
