    Abstract:
    In 22 normal term gravidas with unfavorable cervix, 5 mg PGF2alpha in Tylose gel was instilled into the extra-amniotic space. The treatment improved the cervical state so much that the women could be successfully induced by conventional methods. The procedure was well tolerated by the mother and it appeared to be perinatally safe.
