ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the clinical value of emergency cervical cerclage combined mesh patch suture in the treatment of cervical incompetence.Methods:From January 2011 to August 2016 in our hospital 65 cases of pregnant women with inevitable abortion,32 cases of they had carried out emergency cervical cerclage combined mesh patch suture(group A),33 cases of they had carried out cervical cerclage only(group B),The prolongation of gestation time,delivery gestational age,neonatal outcome,delivery mode and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results:The operation time of A group was higher than that of group B,surgical complications of cervical laceration in group A was less than B group,the difference was statistically significant(P ＜ 0.05);there was no significant difference in the incidence of chorioamnionitis between the two groups(P＞0.05);the gestational age of group A was extended to 84.45 ±35.77 days,and the gestational age of B group was extended to 51.86 ±29.93 days,there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.05);there was more than 28 weeks delivery in 23 cases(71.88％) in group A,and 17 cases (51.52％) in group B,the difference was statistically significant(P ＜ 0.05);there were no statistically significant differences in the delivery mode between the two groups(P ＞ 0.05);neonatal birth weight,birth Apgar 1 minutes score of group B were significantly lower than those of group A,the difference was statistically significant (P ＜0.05).Conclusions:Emergency cervical cerclage combined mesh patch suture can effectively prolong the gestational age,improve neonatal outcome,no obvious complication and has certain clinical applicative value.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To predict the perinatal outcomes of emergency cervical cerclage operation we analyzed some infectious parameters before and after the operation in patients has incompetent internal os of cervix, and compared their results between one success group and one failed group. METHODS: The 13 patients with emergency cervical cerclage and the 31 patients with elective cervical cerclage included in our study. After emergency cerclage, we investigated some infectious parameters as ESR, CRP, and WBC count, every other day. And we compared these values between success and failed group. We also evaluated the difference of these results between emergency cerclage and elective cerclage operation. RESULTS: 1. There were higher values of ESR and CRP after cerclage operation in failed group than those in success group significantly (p<0.05). 2. There also had shown higher values of WBC count at 3 days after operation in failed group than those in success group significantly (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: The infection is one of the most important factors in successful perinatal outcome after emergency cerclage operation and continuous follow up in ESR, CRP and WBC counts after operation can be used to predict the perinatal outcomes in relation to incompetent internal os of cervix.

A retrospective study was conducted to evaluate the clinical outcomes of midtrimester emergency cervical cerclage in patients with painless cervical dilatation with/without prolapsed amniotic sac, including cases of no previous history of cervical incompetence. 10 patients including 1 twin pregnancy were teviewed for study, All had received emergency cervical cerclage with Macdonald operation or Shirodka operation at 18 to 31 weeksgestation. The procedures were carried out without serious complication except for one patient who had received re-operation 3 days after Macdonald operation because of re-protrusion of amniotic sae. The mean procedure to delivery internal was 8.9+/-5.3 (range 1 to 17) weeks. The mean gestational age at delivery was 32.4+/-5.6 (range 22 to 39+6) weeks for the entire group, 36.1+/-2.6 (range 32+4 to 39+6) weeks for the 6 who achived viability, and 27.6+/-5.0 (range 22 to 29+4) weeks for the 3 who died during the neonatal period. 1 died during gestation and was delivered at 33+6 weeksgestation. The mean birthweight was 2181.6+/-971.6 (range 498 to 3500)g for the entire group, and 2712.9+/- 571.5 (range 1860 to 3500)g for the 7 infants who lived until after neonatal period. The total survival rate for 11 babies was 64%. This study demonstrates that midtrimester emergency cervical cerclage for the patients who have dilated cervix with/without prolapsed amniotic sac is valuable method to try in the cases predicted they would lost the baby with conservative treatment only.
