A CASE OF A RARE POSTOPERATIVE COMPLICATION OF LAPAROSCOPIC CERCLAGE – FORMATION OF A VESICOVAGINAI FISTULA
Main Article Content
Abstract
Cervical cerclage is a surgical intervention aimed at preventing previable birth by providing mechanical support to the cervix through the placement of a suture. This procedure is primarily indicated for cases of cervical incompetence, where the cervix is prone to premature dilation and can lead to early miscarriage or preterm birth. Failure or technical impossibility to place a transvaginal cerclage in women with cervical insufficiency justifies the need for an abdominal cerclage.
