  • Title: [The termination of pregnancy in the second trimester with rivanol].
    Author: Vlasova D, Tsankova M.
    Journal: Akush Ginekol (Sofiia); 1996; 35(1-2):16-7. PubMed ID: 8967530.
    Abstract:
    The authors suggest their experience in pregnancy interruption in the second trimester by means of extra-amnionic transcervical application of sterile 0.1% rivanol solution. Ten pregnant women between 14-24 gestational weeks were observed. Their pregnancies were successfully interrupted for medical indications from 22 to 28 hours after the application of rivanol solution. The authors recommend this method as applicable to pregnant women with oligohydramnios (malformative or dead fetus) as well as a preparation for a single-staged pregnancy interruption in the 14-15 gestational week. The method is successful, comparatively safe, easily accessible and cheap.
