Background:There is a gradual increase in second-trimester abortion because of wide scale introduction of prenatal screening programs detecting women whose pregnancies are complicated by serious fetal abnormalities suchas aneuploidy, cardiovascular and skeletal malformation. It constitutes 10-15% of all induced abortions.With the global trend of raised cesarean section rate, obstetricians are faced with the challenge of termination of pregnancy in women with a scarred uterus.Termination of pregnancy in second trimester is associated with much more morbidity and mortality than when it is done in the first trimester. The various methods for second trimester termination of pregnancy are still controversial and the search for the ideal method which is the safest, easiest, cheapest and most effective is still going on. Search for alternative and effective method is the need of hour. In our study, we aimed at assessing the effectiveness and safety of intracervical foleys catheter with vaginal misoprost and comparing it with the vaginal misoprost for mid trimester abortions in patients with previous caesarean.
