    • The study aimed to identify and analyze complications arising from abortion procedures.

    Observation:

    • Out of 394 total abortions, 17 were classified as induced abortions.
    • Three of these induced abortions presented with severe complications.

    Findings:

    • Two cases required uterus extirpation (removal) via laparotomy due to serious complications.
    • This highlights a significant complication rate for induced abortions within the study period.

    Implications:

    • Findings underscore the critical need for careful patient selection and monitoring in induced abortion procedures.
    • The data suggests potential risks associated with induced abortions, emphasizing the importance of surgical preparedness for severe complications.
