Method: It is a prospective study carried out in 90 women of missed abortion confirmed by transvaginal ultrasound. After fitness and consent of the patients Misoprostol tablet 200 μgm was inserted vaginally every 4 hours of maximum 5 doses. Time for latent period and induction abortion interval was noted and all patients monitored carefully. Surgical evacuation was performed when complete exclusion was not documented on ultrasound after 24 hours of treatment. Result: - Complete medical evacuation occurs in 54 women ( 60% ) - Mean induction abortion interval was 13.37 hours Conclusion: - Misoprost is a safe reasonably effective medical method in including complete evacuation in missed abortion, when this doesn’t occurs it almost always adequate cervical dilatation for surgery.
