Abstract
A possible method for reducing complications after legally induced first-trimester abortions was sought. One hundred-seventeen patients participated in the study and had the gestational age determined by ultrasound before evacuation. The aspirated amount of tissue was measured and a definite correlation was made to the seventh to twelfth week of gestation respectively. It is concluded that at least 15 ml tissue should be evacuated in the seventh to eight week, 25 ml in the ninth to tenth week, and 35 ml in the eleventh to twelfth respectively.Entities:
