Abstract

Introduction: Retained intra-uterine fetal bone is a known complication following surgical termination of a second trimester pregnancy. It is most commonly detected on investigation for acute pelvic pain or secondary infertility and can manifest up to 15 years after surgery. We describe a presentation of abnormal uterine bleeding only six weeks after surgical abortion of second trimester pregnancy. This is both a rare presentation of retained fetal bone and the earliest documented case following surgery.
