Objectives: To describe the perinatal results in a patient with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. Methods: We present the case of a patient diagnosed with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria at the Instituto Nacional de Perinatología, Mexico. Case report: The 19-year-old patient presented a 26-week pregnancy and pancytopenia. Infectious, pharmacological and autoimmune etiologies were discarded. Flow cytometry identified paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria clone type II/III in over 50% of granulocytes and monocytes. During pregnancy, the management consisted in transfusion support and anticoagulation with acenocoumarin. Delivery occurred at 38.5 weeks of gestation. The patient was then referred to a bone marrow transplant unit.

Objective: To determine the effectiveness of misoprostol using the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2017 protocol for medical management of first trimester abortion. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed between March and September 2018. Seventy-six patients diagnosed with first trimester spontaneous abortion were managed following the FIGO 2017 protocol for medical management of first trimester abortion. Results: Main indications for inclusion of the 76 patients were missed abortion 57.9%, incomplete abortion 25%, and anembryonic pregnancy 17.1%. Medical induction with misoprostol followed the FIGO 2017 protocol for medical management of first trimester abortion. The most frequent side effect reported was abnormal uterine bleeding associated with pelvic pain (72.3% of patients). Complete uterine evacuation was accomplished in 98.6% of the patients. C...
