In three pregnant women, lethal anomalies of the fetus were diagnosed ultrasonographically in the second trimester. These women decided to continue their pregnancies for different reasons. One woman strongly regretted her decision to abort a previous pregnancy. The second hoped that the doctors were mistaken on the prognosis. The third woman was afraid of medical interventions. In case of lethal anomalies of the fetus, doctors should advise their patients to consider both options: termination as well as continuation of their pregnancy. Irrespective of the women's choice, doctors ought to be committed to support the pregnant women in such a troublesome situation.
