Abstract

Medical termination of a first trimester intrauterine pregnancy associated with large and multiple leiomyomas posed a unique problem because the sac was inaccessible per vaginum for surgical or vacuum evacuation. The use of prostaglandins was contraindicated due to a past history of bronchial asthma. But intraamniotic and intraplacental instillation of methotrexate, 25 mg at each site, under ultrasound guidance resulted in termination of pregnancy. No side effects or complications were observed after the procedure.
