    Cervical cerclage effectiveness varies by indication. Secondary cerclage improved outcomes, while primary cerclage showed similar results to expectant management. Tertiary cerclage had unfavorable outcomes regardless of treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Maternal-Fetal Medicine

    Context:

    • Cervical incompetence poses a risk for preterm delivery and second-trimester abortions.
    • Different types of cervical cerclage (primary, secondary, tertiary) are used to manage cervical incompetence.
    • Expectant management is an alternative to cerclage in some cases.

    Purpose:

    • To compare the effectiveness of primary, secondary, and tertiary cervical cerclage versus expectant management.
    • To evaluate the impact of timing and cervical length on cerclage success.

    Summary:

    • A retrospective study of 145 pregnant women with cervical incompetence compared cerclage to expectant management.
    • Primary cerclage showed similar effectiveness to expectant management.
    • Secondary cerclage significantly improved gestational age at delivery and reduced preterm births compared to expectant management.

  • Tertiary cerclage was associated with unfavorable outcomes, irrespective of treatment.
  • Placing cerclage before 18 weeks' gestation and maintaining cervical length >= 25 mm improved outcomes.

    • Impact:

    • Findings suggest that secondary cervical cerclage is beneficial for preventing preterm delivery in specific patient groups.
    • The study highlights the importance of timing and cervical length in optimizing cerclage outcomes.
    • Results may inform clinical decision-making regarding the management of cervical incompetence.
