Porsha Ngumezi bled to death as she was miscarrying after her doctor opted against an emergency procedure used to end pregnancies.

The death of 35-year-old Porsha Ngumezi was preventable, according to more than a dozen doctors who reviewed a summary of her case for ProPublica.

A 35-year-old Texas woman required a dilation and curettage after suffering a miscarriage and hemorrhaging. However, because the procedure is also used for abortions, she was unable to receive the proper medical attention and later died from heavy bleeding.

The largest state with an abortion ban, Texas can offer broader insight into the impact of abortion laws than any other state in the country.

The Texas Maternal Mortality Committee will begin reviewing death cases from 2024 and will skip over two years of full death reviews.

The case seeks to clarify the language of Texas' abortion laws, which ban all abortions except when a pregnant patient risks death or “substantial impairment of major bodily function."
