Cardiocirculatory arrest after administration of combined mifepristone (Mifegyne) and sulprostone (Nalador) for induced abortion. Possible role of coronary vasospasm
1992
: Reversible ventricular fibrillation occurred in a 35 year old multiparous woman after the administration of the association mifepristone (Mifegyne) and sulprostone (Nalador) for therapeutic abortion. A coronary spasm induced by the analogue of the prostaglandin PGE 2x was though to be the causative mechanism and was reproduced by the Ergonovine test. The evolution of the ECG and myocardial scintigraphy suggested a slowly regressive stunned myocardium.
