Group	Intervention	Description
Fetoscopy in missed abortion	Fetoscopy	Women who have decided to undergo fetoscopy in missed abortion

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Macroscopic anatomic malformations in missed abortions	Two years	The number and type of macroscopic anatomic malformations in missed abortions will be determined through visual observation using a fetoscope

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Prevention of retained conception products	Two years	Prevention of retained conception products by hysteroscopy after curettage and visualization and observation of the contents of the womb
Minimize intrauterine adhesions through observation	Two years	To minimize intrauterine adhesions that might occur after curettage through the ability to visualize the womb and pregnancy site through a hysteroscope before the surgical procedure so that inadvertent intrauterine adhesions are minimized. After one year, if pregnancy is not achieved (due to intrauterine adhesions that cause infertility), a follow-up hysteroscopy will be performed and intrauterine adhesions can be visualized if they have occurred.
