Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) associated with disseminated intravascular clotting (DIC) is usually fatal. Such a combination generally occurs at the term of pregnancy or in the immediate postpartum period. A case of AFE with DIC following a hypertonic-saline-induced abortion, is reported. The patient was in the midtrimester with a live fetus. Prompt recognition and treatment of her condition ensured her complete recovery. Such a case has not, to our knowledge, been previously reported.
羊水栓塞（AFE）合并弥散性血管内凝血（DIC）通常是致命的。这种情况一般发生在妊娠足月时或产后即刻。本文报道了1例因高渗盐水引产导致羊水栓塞合并弥散性血管内凝血的病例。该患者处于妊娠中期，胎儿存活。对其病情的及时识别与治疗确保了她完全康复。据我们所知，此前尚未有此类病例的报道。
