Dilation and suction curettage consists of emptying the uterus by suction using a special apparatus.
Dilation and curettage (DandC) is a standard gynaecological procedure performed for a variety of reasons.
Very late abortions can be brought about by the controversial intact dilation and extraction (D & X) or a hysterotomy abortion, similar to a caesarian section, and requiring the surgical decompression of the fetus's head before evacuation.

 STENBERG V. CARHART
In contrast, “partial birth abortion”; has the advantage of faithfully describing the procedure the legislature meant to address because the fact that a fetus is “partially born” during the procedure is indisputable.
Consistent with the practice of Dr. Haskell (an Ohio practitioner), Ohio referred to the procedure as “dilation and extraction,” defined as “the termination of a human pregnancy by purposely inserting a suction device into the skull of a fetus to remove the brain.”; Ohio Rev. Code Ann.
The fact that the statutory term “partial birth abortion”; may express a political or moral judgment, whereas “dilation and extraction” does not, is irrelevant.

 What does the Bible say about abortion?
We cannot affirm abortion as an acceptable means of birth control, and we unconditionally reject it as a means of gender selection.
We oppose the use of late-term abortion known as dilation and extraction (partial-birth abortion) and call for the end of this practice except when the physical life of the mother is in danger and no other medical procedure is available, or in the case of severe fetal anomalies incompatible with life.
We call all Christians to a searching and prayerful inquiry into the sorts of conditions that may warrant abortion.
