	Background on fetal experimentation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Hysterotomy abortions are not usually performed under approximately 14 weeks gestation.
		Hysterotomy abortions are classified as major surgery requiring a general anesthetic and the opening of both the abdominal & uterine cavities.
		Abortions performed by suction or surgical D & C would not provide such specimens, but in a hysterotomy abortion the developing baby is lifted out, intact, in the amniotic sac.

	Abortion \| DoctorNDTV: Health Information on Abortion
		Hysterotomy is a major operating procedure where the abdomen is opened.
		In a hysterotomy the uterus is opened and the contents of the uterus removed directly under vision.
		At times hysterotomy or hysterectomy may be necessary because of a failure of a medical induction during the second trimester.

		Hysterotomy abortion is similar to a Ceasarian Section delivery, except that its purpose is to kill rather than save the child.
		"Hysterotomy is an operation like a Caesarian section in which the infant is surgically removed from the mother's abdomen and uterus.
		With the hysterotomy type of abortion there is no chemical that is inducing fetal death.

		Hysterotomy to effect vaginal delivery with mentum anterior head entrapment -- Pollard et al.
		Laparotomy and hysterotomy were performed, and vaginal delivery of a live fetus was accomplished after rotation and flexion of the fetal head through this incision.
		CONCLUSION: Hysterotomy is a safe and effective maneuver for delivery of the entrapped fetal head with mentum anterior rotation after standard procedures have failed.

		Shortly thereafter we learned that the abortion was scheduled for Thursday morning and that the procedure would involve a hysterotomy consisting of a lateral incision in the lower abdomen.
		The abortion is either done through an abdominal hysterotomy, which is similar to a C-section, or through some full or partial induction of labor.
		The latter includes the infamous partial birth abortion, where the baby is born breach except for the head, and while it’s in such a state, the baby is then killed and the head is removed from the uterus.

		Hysterotomy with removal of the anomalous twin was first reported in 1989
		Hysterotomy risks: complications of major surgery; premature delivery and associated risks of prematurity; undefined risks of mid-trimester hysterotomy with regard to future fertility and survival of the normal twin.
		Because twin embolization phenomena have not been reported in acardiac twinning, such risk is not similar to that in twin to twin transfusion syndrome and is undefined post-hysterotomy or post-embolization procedure.

		A total of 0.4%, or 5,070, were performed using other procedures, including hysterotomy and hysterectomy.
		Hysterotomy and hysterectomy, which, according to CDC accounted for 0.4%, or less, of the abortions performed in 1994, will not be discussed in this report.
		The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology has stated that hysterotomy (incision of the uterus), comparable to a cesarean section, and hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) should be used as a primary abortion technique only in unique situations.

		Hysterotomy [abortion] is essentially a pre-term cesarean section, except that it entails even more blood loss and other damage because the uterus is thicker than at term.
		The scar from a hysterotomy [abortion] can rupture during any subsequent pregnancy, causing catastrophic bleeding, and a woman who has had a hysterotomy must deliver any future children by cesarean section to avoid rupturing the scar during labor.

		The authors reevaluate the opportunity of the segmental-longitudinal hysterotomy in the Caesarian section, applied in certain circumstances during the third trimester of pregnancy or during the travail.
		We have accomplished a longitudinal hysterotomy along the inferior segment, approximately 10 cm long which has seldom required an extension over the Bandl ring.
		The most frequent indication for the longitudinal Caesarian section was imposed by the multiple cicatrix uterus (52,9%).

		Still, for the sake of information, the best known of these methods are mentioned here.
		Hysterotomy can be described as a miniature Caesarean section.
		A woman who has had a hysterotomy (not to be confused with a hysterectomy, or removal of the uterus) can become pregnant again, but usually needs a Caesarean section every time she wants to give birth.

		For the purposes of this discussion, we are going to assume the foal is dead, as they almost always are when a dystocia lasts over 90 minutes.
		In these cases, hysterotomies are performed when a vaginal delivery is considered likely to damage the reproductive tract (especially the uterus and cervix).
		The goal of the hysterotomy is to maximize the mares’ future reproductive capability.

	Nat' Academies Press, The Whole Truth About Contraception: A Guide to Safe and Effective Choices (1997)
		Hysterotomy is a major operation, somewhat like a mini-cesarean section, that requires general or epidural anesthesia.
		Moreover, any future pregnancies carried to term may require a cesarean delivery, because a hysterotomy incision is thought to weaken the uterus wall.
		(Unlike a true cesarean section, the incision is made in the upper part of the uterus, where it is more likely to rupture during another labor.) Hysterotomies were used for second trimester abortions during the brief period right after abortions were made legal everywhere in the United States and before other methods became readily available.

		As the fetus size increases other techniques must be used to secure abortion in the third trimester, premature expulsion of the fetus can be induced with prostaglandin, this can be coupled with injecting the amniotic fluid with saline or urea solution.
		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.
		This is also referred to as Intact dilation and extraction.

	Carhart v. Stenberg
		Hysterotomy is major surgery and must be performed in a hospital setting.
		Carhart does not perform hysterotomy or hysterectomy as methods of abortion, but he is aware of other physicians in Nebraska who perform abortions by these methods when an abortion is maternally or fetally indicated.
		When measured by maternal death, for the period between 13 weeks and plus or minus 21 weeks, the "DandE" procedure is measurably safer than labor induction, hysterotomy, and hysterectomy, the other abortion procedures customarily used during this time.

	Legal
		Specifically, “Dr. Edelin’s act during the course of a hysterotomy, which act constituted manslaughter, was his waiting 3-5 minutes after he manually separated the placenta from the uterine wall and before he removed the person from the abdominal cavity of his mother.”
		Roe exactly was (anywhere between 17 and 26 weeks) and Dr. Edelin could not be positive that the fetus was deemed not viable before performing the hysterotomy.
		Roe was so close to this variable time of which viability may be present, one could charge Dr. Edelin for manslaughter in his act of negligence and arbitrariness of not determining a more definite fetal age.

	Treatment of acardiac-acephalus twin gestations by hysterotomy and selective delivery -- Fries et al. 79 (4): 601 -- ...
		We present a surgical approach to the treatment of this problem involving hysterotomy and selective delivery of the acardiac twin, which we have used in five cases.
		The fourth and fifth cases were delivered at 27 and 28 weeks' gestation, respectively, the first because of preterm rupture of membranes 2 weeks after the procedure and the second because of partial placental abruption 8 weeks after surgery; both of these infants are now doing well.
		We conclude that hysterotomy has direct applicability in the management of these high-risk pregnancies.

		Experiments were carried out to determine whether transforming growth factor-ß1 can reduce expansion of open wounds in the fetal rabbit.
		This study was based on the concept that transforming growth factor-ß1 causes differentiation of fibroblasts into contractile fibroblasts or 'myofibroblasts." To test this hypothesis, pregnant New Zealand White rabbits underwent laparotomy and hysterotomy on day 24 of gestation.
		After wounding, either vehicle alone or vehicle with transforming growth factor-ßl was applied topically to the wound site, and each fetus was then returned to the uterus, The hysterotomy and loparotomy were closed in standard fashion.

		Abortion methods currently used are instrumental evacuation through the vagina; medical induction, with stimulation of uterine contractions; and uterine surgery (hysterotomy or hysterectomy).
		Performing suction curettage in the 1st trimester is safer than terminating a pregnancy by D and E, prostaglandins, or hysterotomy in the 2nd trimester.
		For most women, abortion is not a threat to mental well-being and has no adverse psychologic sequelae.

		The rare instance of placenta accreta and percreta in the second trimester may necessitate laparotomy with hysterotomy or hysterectomy.
		Hysterotomy is used at 12-24 weeks of gestation and is reserved for the rare instances in which all other methods of abortion have failed or are contraindicated.
		Follow-up care: For manual vacuum aspiration, suction curettage, D&E, and hysterotomy/hysterectomy, schedule a follow-up visit in 2 weeks (1-2 wk after hospital discharge for hysterotomy) to evaluate the patient for complications, to initiate contraception if not previously initiated, to review culture results if not previously reviewed, and to evaluate the pathology results.

		Extremely late in a term of pregnancy, giving birth may involve less risk to the mother than abortion.
		But hysterotomy is always much more risky and expensive than abortion.
		In at least some cases, abortion represents the minimum force tnecessary to remove an unwanted fetus without subjecting the mother to undue additional risk and expense.

		Indications for open hysterotomy fetal surgery included congenital diaphragmatic hernia (n = 44), congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung (n = 11), urinary obstruction (n = 9), sacrococcygeal teratoma (n = 4), heart block (n = 1), and acardiac-acephalic twin reduction (n = 1).
		We report this experience because the effect of open fetal surgery on futrue fertility is such an important question for our patients and referring physicians.
		This analysis suggests that hysterotomy and open fetal surgery has a negligible impact on maternal fertility.
