description Unsafe abortion has a global incidence of about 20 million cases annually, out of which 97% cases are reported from developing nations. There are many reports showing the occurrence of bowel or uterine perforation in such instances, but most of them have concentrated upon surgical or obstetric complications. We report a case of unsafe abortion with ruptured uterus, intra-abdominal foetus, and bowel infarction that developed intraoperative cardiac arrest during the emergency laparotomy. This case highlights anaesthetic challenges in managing such critically ill-patients.
