Abstract

The role of cervical cerclage was evaluated in 54 pregnant women with anomalous uteri. Forty-six of them delivered live neonates, and eight aborted. The success rate was 85.2% as compared to 22% in previous pregnancies. The mean gestational age was 38 weeks (range, 32-42). The average birth weight was 3,150 g. Complications from the cerclage procedures were minor. Our results support the trend toward the use of cervical cerclage in pregnant women with anomalous uteri.
