Risky? Sure. But so is the potential complications should the child miscarry that late (serious infections, etc) or she actually have the child (if there's the possibility that delivery could be fatal). The child may die anyways, but there's no need for the mother to die as well.
Of course, I'm not neglecting the possibility that the abortion itself could be fatal for both of them as well. Nothing's guaranteed, but doctors and patients make the best decisions they can with what they have.
