ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the pregnancy outcome of laparoscopy cervical cerclage before pregnancy in treatment of uterine cervical insufficiency. Methods The clinical data of 78 uterine cervical incompetence patients having underwent cervical cerclage before pregnancy were retrospectively analyzed. Among them 40 cases underwent laparoscopy cervical cerclage (laparoscopy group), and 38 cases underwent transvaginal cervical cerclage (transvaginal group). The operation time, complications, length of cervix in pregnancy, lengthen time of gestational weeks, gestational weeks, perinatal infant weight, survival rate of perinatal infants and infection rate of uterine cavity were compared between 2 groups. Results The length of cervix in pregnancy, lengthened time of gestational weeks, perinatal infant weight, term labor rate and survival rate of perinatal infants in laparoscopy group were significantly higher than those in transvaginal group (4.35 ± 0.52) cm vs. (3.51 ± 0.66) cm, (116.7 ± 9.8) d vs. (90.2 ± 5.2) d, (3 050 ± 759) g vs. (2 500 ± 431) g, 60.0%(24/40) vs. 31.6%(12/38) and 95.0%(38/40) vs. 78.9%(30/38), and the infection rate of uterine cavity was significantly lower than that in transvaginal group 2.5% (1/40) vs. 18.4% (7/38), and there were statistical differences (P 0.05). Conclusions Laparoscopy cervical cerclage before pregnancy in treatment of uterine cervical incompetence can effectively maintain the cervical length period of pregnancy, improve the success rate of surgery, prolong gestational weeks, and improve perinatal outcome.
