(+info)Cervical incompetence: the use of transvaginal sonography to provide an objective diagnosis. (2/50)
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the use of transvaginal sonography in monitoring the cervix in women at high risk of a preterm delivery. STUDY DESIGN: One hundred and six women at high risk of preterm labor had regular cervical monitoring by transvaginal ultrasound throughout pregnancy from the second trimester to delivery. The study was designed to be observational, but intervention was considered if the cervical length fell below 10 mm. RESULTS: Eleven women demonstrated opening of the cervical canal at rest or with fundal pressure before 24 weeks' gestation. Between 2 and 17 days later all 11 cervices progressively shortened to a cervical length of < 10 mm. Nine women had a cervical cerclage. Seven women had fetal membranes visible within the cervical canal at the time of cerclage. One woman miscarried at 18 weeks, and the other 10 had live births at a median gestational age of 36 (range, 27-38) weeks. CONCLUSIONS: Cervical length shortening in the second trimester, once started, progressed to a cervical length under 10 mm. Opening of the cervical os at rest or in response to fundal pressure detected by transvaginal ultrasound appears to be the early ultrasound feature of cervical incompetence. (+info)Elective cerclage vs. ultrasound-indicated cerclage in high-risk pregnancies. (3/50)
OBJECTIVE: To compare pregnancy outcome after elective vs. ultrasound-indicated cervical cerclage in women at high risk of spontaneous mid-trimester loss or early preterm birth. METHODS: This was a retrospective study comparing two management strategies in women with singleton pregnancies who had at least one previous spontaneous delivery at 16-33 weeks of gestation. One group was managed by the placement of an elective cerclage at 12-16 weeks and the other group had transvaginal ultrasound examinations of the cervix at 12-15+6, 16-19+6, and 20-23+6 weeks and cervical cerclage was carried out if the cervical length was 25 mm or less. RESULTS: A total of 90 patients were examined, including 47 that were managed expectantly and 43 treated by elective cerclage. In the expectantly managed group, 59.6% (28/47) required a cervical cerclage. We excluded from further analysis three patients who were lost to follow-up and three because of fetal death or iatrogenic preterm delivery. Miscarriage or spontaneous delivery before 34 weeks' gestation occurred in 14.6% (6/41) of the elective cerclage group, compared with 20.9% (9/43) in the expectantly managed group (chi2 = 0.219, P = 0.640). CONCLUSION: In women at increased risk of spontaneous mid-trimester or early preterm delivery, a policy of sonographic surveillance followed by cervical cerclage in those with a short cervix reduces the need for surgical intervention without significantly increasing adverse pregnancy outcome. (+info)Cervical Incompetence Prevention Randomized Cerclage Trial (CIPRACT): effect of therapeutic cerclage with bed rest vs. bed rest only on cervical length. (4/50)
OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of therapeutic cerclage and bed rest vs. just bed rest on cervical length and to relate these effects to the risk of preterm delivery. DESIGN: Cervical length was measured in patients at high risk of cervical incompetence. When a cervical length < 25 mm was measured before 27 weeks' gestation, randomization for therapeutic cerclage and bed rest vs. just bed rest was performed. After randomization, cervical length was measured weekly. For statistical analysis, t-test and Fisher's exact tests were used and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: Nineteen women were randomly allocated to receive a therapeutic cerclage and bed rest and 16 were allocated to receive bed rest only. Mean cervical lengths and mean gestational ages before randomization were comparable between both groups, overall 19.8 mm and 20.7 weeks. Cervical length was measured again at a mean gestation of 22.1 weeks. Mean cervical length (31 mm) was significantly (P < 0.0001) longer after cerclage than after bed rest only (19 mm). A cervical length > or = 25 mm was measured in 22 of the 35 included women, 16 in the cerclage group and six in the bed-rest group (P = 0.006). Of these 22 women, only one delivered before 34 weeks' gestation, which was significantly less frequent than six out of 13 women with a cervical length < 25 mm (P = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS: Therapeutic cerclage with bed rest increases cervical length more often than bed rest alone. A postintervention cervical length > or = 25 mm reduces the risk of preterm delivery in women at high risk of cervical incompetence and a preintervention cervical length < 25 mm.

Recurrent miscarriage (RM) is a heterogeneous condition. A large number of studies has recently been published, yet many of them have conflicting conclusions. The various aetiological factors, management, prognostic features and outcomes of a subsequent pregnancy in women with RM are reviewed. (+info)Cervical diameter after suction termination of pregnancy. (6/50)
The diameter of the internal cervical os was measured in several groups of patients in an attempt to assess any damage caused by suction termination of pregnancy. Pregnant women who had had a previous abortion by vacuum aspiration had significantly greater cervical diameters than those who had not, and there was a statistically significant correlation between dilatation of the cervix at operation and cervical diameter at six weeks' follow-up. Cervical dilatation to 10 mm or less was subsequently associated with a normal cervical diameter, but the diameter was often large when the extent of dilatation was greater than 12 mm or not known. Cervical dilatation at termination of pregnancy should, if possible not exceed 10 mm. (+info)The 'virtual' cervical internal os: diagnosis during the first trimester of pregnancy. (7/50)
OBJECTIVE: To determine the appropriate time during gestation for assessing the cervix for possible incompetence by ascertaining the gestational week at which the sac reaches the level of the internal os. METHODS: Three hundred and eighteen women with an intact singleton pregnancy at 5 to 15 weeks' gestation underwent endovaginal sonographic examination to measure the distance between the gestational sac and the cervical internal os. The change in location of the gestational sac in the endometrial cavity over time, and the earliest gestational week at which the gestational sac reached the level of the internal os, were calculated and analyzed with one-way analysis of variance. RESULTS: The distance between the gestational sac and the 'virtual' cervical internal os decreased from a mean of 4.72 cm at 5 weeks to 1.71 cm at 13 weeks. This distance decreased significantly during the early first trimester (weeks 5 to 7) (P = 0.004), but remained almost unchanged from 12 to 15 weeks. Only at 12 weeks' gestation could the entire cervical length be determined and the configuration of the cervical internal os assessed for incompetence. CONCLUSIONS: Transvaginal sonography is a good method for evaluating the cervix during pregnancy. The location of the 'virtual' internal os can be determined in the first trimester using the urinary bladder as a reference point. (+info)Methylcellulose gel is a superior contrast agent for ultrasound examination of the cervix in obstetric patients. (8/50)
OBJECTIVE: To determine the superior contrast agent for cervical sonography: water-soluble methylcellulose gel vs. normal saline. METHODS: Women with an indication for cervical sonography underwent placement of 10 mL water-soluble methylcellulose gel or normal saline. Assessment of cervical dimensions and contour was performed via transperineal sonography prior to and after contrast placement. RESULTS: Twenty-five patients with similar demographic characteristics and indications for ultrasonography were enrolled into each group. Administration of contrast improved the ability to visualize the external os or vaginal fornices in 18 women in the gel group vs. six in the saline group (P = 0.002). In the gel group, 17 patients had easier identification of the external os and visualization of the fornices was enhanced in 13 patients. The assessment of cervical length prior to and after contrast administration was not statistically different with the use of either of these agents. CONCLUSION: Intravaginal soluble gel is superior to normal saline as a cervical contrast agent. Intravaginal contrast may allow for easier identification of cervical anatomy during ultrasonographic examination in selected patients. (+info)Uterine cervical incompetence, also known as cervical insufficiency, is a medical condition where the cervix begins to shorten and dilate (open) without any signs of labor or contractions, usually during the second trimester of pregnancy. This can lead to premature delivery or miscarriage. It is often caused by structural abnormalities or damage to the cervix, such as from a previous surgical procedure, trauma, or congenital defects. In some cases, the cause may be unknown. It's important to note that this condition is different from preterm labor, which involves both contractions and cervical changes.
Cerclage, cervical is a surgical procedure in which a band or suture is placed around the cervix to provide support and prevent dilation (opening) during pregnancy. This procedure is typically performed in women who have a history of cervical insufficiency or premature dilation of the cervix, which can lead to preterm labor and delivery. The cerclage is usually placed between the 12th and 14th weeks of gestation and removed near the end of the second trimester or when the woman goes into labor.
Venous insufficiency is a medical condition that occurs when the veins, particularly in the legs, have difficulty returning blood back to the heart due to impaired valve function or obstruction in the vein. This results in blood pooling in the veins, leading to symptoms such as varicose veins, swelling, skin changes, and ulcers. Prolonged venous insufficiency can cause chronic pain and affect the quality of life if left untreated.
Varicose veins are defined as enlarged, swollen, and twisting veins often appearing blue or dark purple, which usually occur in the legs. They are caused by weakened valves and vein walls that can't effectively push blood back toward the heart. This results in a buildup of blood, causing the veins to bulge and become varicose.
The condition is generally harmless but may cause symptoms like aching, burning, muscle cramp, or a feeling of heaviness in the legs. In some cases, varicose veins can lead to more serious problems, such as skin ulcers, blood clots, or chronic venous insufficiency. Treatment options include lifestyle changes, compression stockings, and medical procedures like sclerotherapy, laser surgery, or endovenous ablation.
