First\u2010trimester abortion was performed in 1088 women (85%) and second\u2010trimester abortion in 199 women (15%). Most women (76%) were aged between 26 and 30 years; they were educated and requested TOP primarily to limit the number of their children or to space their births. A malformed fetus was the indication for TOP in 5.9% cases, and 16% of the women had medical disorders associated with the pregnancy. Suction evacuation was the method of choice for first\u2010trimester abortion (88%); dinoprostone gel and extra\u2010amniotic saline solution plus oxytocin infusion were the primary methods (71%) for second\u2010trimester abortion. <jats:italic>Results:<\/jats:italic> Uterine perforation occurred in 1 patient (0.09%) after a first\u2010trimester abortion. The total rate of complications was 3.79% after first\u2010trimester and 4.0% after second\u2010trimester abortions. Excessive hemorrhage and retained placenta were chief complications associated with second\u2010trimester abortion. Incomplete abortion (1.5%) and minor infection were seen in 2.3% patients. The rate of complications was higher among parous women. Postabortion insertion of a CuT intrauterine device increased the need for a second course of antibiotics. <jats:italic>Conclusion:<\/jats:italic> Termination of pregnancy is safe if adequate care is taken while performing the procedure.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijgo.2005.06.012","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,8,16]],"date-time":"2005-08-16T11:12:51Z","timestamp":1124190771000},"page":"81-86","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Abortion procedures in a tertiary care institution in India"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"91","author":[{"given":"N.","family":"Choudhary","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.C.","family":"Saha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S","family":"Gopalan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,8,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_2","first-page":"229","volume-title":"Practice of fertility control: a comprehensive textbook","author":"Chaudhary S.K.","year":"2001"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_2","first-page":"207","article-title":"WHO FOGSI maternal mortality study","volume":"47","author":"Bhatt RV.","year":"1997","journal-title":"J Obstet Gynaecol India"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_2","unstructured":"Indian Council of Medical Research.
