About

The main aim of the investigator study is the success of predictivity cervical consistency index (CCI), anterior uterocervical angle (aUCA) and posterior uterocervical angle (pUCA) in second trimester terminations.

Full description

This prospective clinical study includes 136 pregnant women with a diagnosis of in utero ex fetus who were hospitalized for medical termination in the gynecology service of Health Sciences University Bursa High Specialization Training and Research Hospital Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic as a single center.

Furthermore who applied to additional treatment methods were recorded (cervical balloon, hysterotomy ) during these periods. In all pregnant women; characteristic features, abortion times, doses of misoprostol used, anterior- posterior uterocervical angle, cervical length, cervical consistency indexes and gestational weeks were saved.
