  • Title: Termination of pregnancy complicated by anencephaly with intra-amniotic prostaglandin F2 alpha.
    Author: Schwartz ML, Brenner WE.
    Journal: Am J Obstet Gynecol; 1980 Jan 15; 136(2):203-4. PubMed ID: 7352499.
    Abstract:
    It is anticipated that there will be more frequent need to terminate anencephalic pregnancies of greater than 20 weeks' duration before term. Since present methods are unsatisfactory, the use of incremental intra-amniotic injections of prostaglandin F2 alpha with continuous monitoring of intrauterine pressure was evaluated in three cases. The method appears to be satisfactory.
