BACKGROUND: Intramural ectopic pregnancy is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy that occurs within the myometrium. It is challenging to diagnose it early because of its nonspecific clinical presentation, and there is no consensus or guideline on the optimal management among gynecologists. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of a 34-year-old woman who developed fundal intramural ectopic pregnancy after a previous caesarean section with B-Lynch suture. The B-Lynch suture was performed at 38 weeks of gestation for postpartum hemorrhage caused by refractory uterine atony about 8 years ago...

BACKGROUND: Postpartum necrotizing myositis is a rare condition, typically presenting as a complication after uterine artery embolization or uterine compression suturing. Uterine ischemia can cause endometrial necrosis and even myometrial necrosis, which can lead to systemic infection. If a systemic infection is not promptly and actively treated, it may pose significant risk. CASE: A 35-year-old patient who had undergone bilateral uterine artery ligation, modified B-Lynch suture, and multiple compression sutures due to refractory postpartum hemorrhage frequently presented to clinic after postpartum discharge due to persistent fever and vaginal discharge...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of Bakri balloon tamponade (BBT) combined with different suture methods on preventing postpartum hemorrhage in women with pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) undergoing cesarean delivery (CD). METHODS: This randomized, double-blind, controlled trial was conducted at The First Affiliated Hospital of Xingtai Medical College from October 2020 to June 2023. Patients with PIH who had persistent bleeding after CD and were unresponsive to uterine contractions, sutures, or uterine disconnection procedures were eligible participants...

OBJECTIVES: The effects of B-Lynch (UCS) compression sutures applied in postpartum hemorrhage cases due to uterine atony on menstrual pattern, fertility, obstetric outcomes, dysmenorrhea and dyspareunia were evaluated. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Between January 2012 and March 2017, 77 patients (study group 37, control group 40) diagnosed postpartum hemorrhage in our clinic were included in the study. The long-term results of the patients were evaluated comparatively...

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) and WHO report the incidence of postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) reaches 1-10% and contributes to an increase in postpartum maternal mortality with uterine atony as the most common cause. B-Lynch method is a suturing technique to overcome PPH. Although this method has proven useful as an emergency life-saving measure, the post-procedure complications are still able to occur. PRESENTATION OF CASE: The patient was not menstruating for 14 months after giving birth through caesarean section with B-Lynch due to PPH...

Objective: To investigate the perinatal maternal and fetal adverse outcomes of cesarean section in the different duration of the second stage of labor. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on the clinical data of 154 pregnant women with singleton head pregnancy who underwent cesarean section at different times of the second stage of labor due to maternal and fetal factors in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021. According to the duration of the second stage of labor, they were divided into <2 h group (54 cases), 2-<3 h group (61 cases), and ≥3 h group (39 cases)...

OBJECTIVES: To compare maternal outcome measures in surgical management of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS)-the modified one-step conservative uterine surgery (MOSCUS), a new approach at Tu Du Hospital in Vietnam, versus cesarean hysterectomy, and to identify factors that appear to contribute to the successful outcome of the MOSCUS. METHODS: This retrospective study was conducted at Tu Du Hospital in southern Vietnam between January 2019 and December 2020. The study enrolled all pregnant women at more than 28 weeks of pregnancy with a diagnosis of PAS who underwent either a cesarean hysterectomy or a uterus-preserving approach using the MOSCUS method...

OBJECTIVE:  Postpartum hemorrhage is a common obstetrical emergency. Because the majority of cases respond to conservative medical therapies, trainees have limited clinical experience with hemostatic sutures or placement of a Bakri intrauterine balloon for refractory postpartum hemorrhage. Simulations provide an invaluable adjunct to resident education to learn and practice these hemostatic techniques. We aimed to create a low-cost, reproducible simulation model to prepare residents for uterine atony interventions such as B-Lynch, Bakri balloon placement, and uterine artery ligation...

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) targets immune cells and exposes infected patients to several diseases. For these reasons, HIV infection should be suspected in each situation where post-operative sepsis occurs, to afford therapy and improve the patient's prognosis. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of a pregnant woman at 39 weeks of gestation who missed her prenatal follow-up. She underwent an emergency caesarian section for severe abnormality in the fetal heart rate...

OBJECTIVES: To describe the use of the B-Lynch suture in a case of postpartum hemorrhage of a woman with bicornuate uterus, and to carry out a review of the literature on PPH control strategies in patients with müllerian anomalies, maternal outcomes in terms of hemorrhage control, as well as early and late complications. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Case report of a patient with bicornuate uterus who presented to a regional referral hospital with postpartum hemorrhage following a cesarean section, which was successfully controlled using the B-Lynch suture...

OBJECTIVE: To compare H-Hayman, a modified uterine compression suturing technique (UCS) that we describe for the first time in the literature, with conventional vertical UCS techniques. METHODS: The H-Hayman technique was used in 14 women and the conventional UCS technique in 21 women. In order to provide standardization in the study, only patients who had developed upper-segment atony during cesarean section were recruited for the study. RESULTS: Bleeding control was achieved in 85...

OBJECTIVE: To explore the efficacy of modified B-Lynch sutures in the fundus uteri and part of the corpus uteri for the prevention of intraoperative haemorrhage during caesarean delivery in women with twin pregnancy. METHODS: This retrospective analysis covers the clinical data of 40 women with postpartum haemorrhage caused by uterine inertia during caesarean section in women with twin pregnancy in our hospital from January 2018 to May 2022. These women were divided into the group with modified B-Lynch sutures at the fundus and part of the corpus uteri (Group A, 20 patients) and the group with classic B-Lynch sutures (Group B, 20 patients) according to the treatment received...

INTRODUCTION: Postpartum haemorrhage is the most life-threatening complication during pregnancy and atonic postpartum haemorrhage being the commonest one, often poses difficulties in management. B-Lynch suture with a high success rate has emerged as a life-saving measure in uncontrolled atonic postpartum haemorrhage refractory to uterotonics. The objective of this study was to find out the prevalence of B-Lynch suture management among patients with post-partum haemorrhage in a tertiary care centre...

Listeria monocytogenes is the conditional pathogenic bacteria, and pregnant women are at higher risk of infection due to depressed immunity. Infection with Listeria monocytogenes in twin pregnancy is rare but devastating, which puts forwards a great challenge for clinical management. Here, a 24-year-old woman was diagnosed with twin pregnancy, intrauterine death of one fetus and fever at 29+4 week of gestation. Two days later, she developed into pericardial effusion, pneumonedema and potential septic shock...

BACKGROUND: Uterine compression suture is an important conservative surgical technique in managing atonic postpartum hemorrhage. In this study, we aim to evaluate the subsequent menstrual, fertility and psychological outcomes after uterine compression sutures. METHODS: This was a prospective cohort study between 2009 and 2022 conducted in a tertiary obstetric unit (6000 deliveries per year) in Hong Kong SAR. Women with primary postpartum hemorrhage successfully treated with uterine compression sutures were followed-up in postnatal clinic for two years after delivery...

BACKGROUND: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality in the U.S. and disproportionately affects pregnant persons of color. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to identify the demographic and obstetric characteristics of those who received different levels of antihemorrhagic intervention in the setting of severe PPH requiring blood transfusion. STUDY DESIGN: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients with documented PPH (estimated blood loss [EBL] of ≥1000mL) and blood product transfusion...

OBJECTIVE: Placenta accreta spectrum disorders (PASD) are the leading cause which results in highly maternal mortality during pregnancy. Although hysterectomy has been the gold standard for PASD, the recent study along with our experience has been demonstrated that the association between uterine myometrial resection and transverse B-Lynch suture in conservative management might be effective in the appropriate patients, thus we hereby attempted to determine this issue. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective observational study enrolled 65 patients at Tu Du Hospital in Vietnam between January 2017 and December 2018...

OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence of intrauterine anomalies, primarily intrauterine adhesions (IUAd), after conservative surgical treatment of severe postpartum hemorrhage with uterine atony (SPPH-UA) and determine patient eligibility for hysteroscopy. METHODS: PubMed and the Cochrane Library were searched by combining keywords "postpartum hemorrhage", "uterine atony", and "hysteroscopy" to perform a literature review. Articles in French and English with more than five cases of hysteroscopy following SPPH-UA were selected...
