Objectives:
To determine the effect of cervical cerclage on obstetrical complications and perinatal outcomes of patients following conization.
Design:
A retrospective population based cohort study.
Setting:
Tertiary academic medical center that covers all the deliveries of the region.
Population:
All patients with previous cervical conization who delivered between the years 1994-2011.
Methods:
A retrospective population based study.
Main Outcome Measures:
The effect of cerclage placement on the rate of preterm birth.
Results:
During the study period there were 109 deliveries of patients following a cervical conization. Cervical cerclage was placed in 22 deliveries that served as the study group and the rest (n = 87) served as the comparison group. The rate of early preterm delivery (PTD; <34 weeks) was significantly higher in women who had a cerclage. In a logistic regression model, cerclage was found to be an independent risk factor for early PTD.
Conclusion:
Cerclage is an independent risk factor for early PTD In patients who had a conization due to CIN.
