The long-term effects of elective preinduction of labor at term by extra-amniotic instillation of prostaglandin E2 in methylhydroxyethylcellulose gel were evaluated in 20 children. No untoward effect of this procedure on the neurologic state of the newborn or the psychomotor development of the children during the first 12 months was found.
