Abstract:
For many years, we and others have reported the efficacy of cervical cerclage in the prevention of miscarriage in patients with uterine malformations. In this paper the experience of 275 cases collected between 1978 and 1998 is reported. Our data indicate that cervical cerclage is effective in preventing miscarriages, prevalently in those pregnancies bearing uterine malformations with simultaneous cervical incompetence.
