Resumo:
O presente estudo teve por objetivo conhecer as vivências de luto de mulheres que interromperam a gestação sob autorização judicial, devido à malformação fetal incompatível com a vida. Participaram do estudo dez mulheres atendidas no Setor de Medicina Fetal do Hospital das Clínicas de Botucatu. Para coleta dos dados foi realizada entrevista semi-estruturada quarenta dias após a interrupção. As entrevistas foram audiogravadas, transcritas na íntegra e tiveram os dados analisados na perspectiva da análise temática de conteúdo. Os resultados revelaram que as mães buscaram explicações e significados para a perda, sendo muito frequentes respostas religiosas e autoculpabilizantes. Os relatos marcaram sentimentos de tristeza, saudade e sensação de vazio pela perda do filho, revelando também a necessidade das mães manterem-se ligadas a ele. As mães estavam e continuaram vinculadas aos seus filhos
e a interrupção da gestação, embora tenha sido uma escolha para minimizar a dor de uma perda inevitável, não as poupou de vivências de grande sofrimento. O estudo traz subsídios para a discussão e planejamento de abordagens e cuidados com a saúde de mulheres que interrompem a gestação por malformação fetal letal, mediante autorização judicial.
