Article Abstract
Purpose Of Review: Laparoscopic abdominal cerclage placement has become the favored approach for management of refractory cervical insufficiency. There are special considerations with respect to surgical method, management of pregnancy loss, and delivery following placement. This review addresses current literature on transabdominal cerclage with a focus on up-to-date minimally invasive techniques.
Recent Findings: Recent literature on abdominal cerclage has compared laparoscopic and open approaches, evaluated the effect of preconception placement on fertility, and explored the upper gestational limit for dilation and evacuation with an abdominal cerclage in situ .
Summary: The objective of this article is to help minimally invasive surgeons identify candidates for transabdominal cerclage placement, understand surgical risks, succeed in their laparoscopic approach, and appropriately manage patients postoperatively.

Objective: To study the implementation value of abdominal B-ultrasound combined with cervical cerclage in the prevention and treatment of recurrent late abortion.
Methods: From October 2020 to December 2023, 196 pregnant patients who had a history of late abortions at our institution were chosen. They were divided into groups based on the treatments used.

Background: Cervical insufficiency is a pathological condition in obstetrics in which the cervix fails to retain the fetus before uterine contractions or labor (painless cervical dilatation). Patients usually have fetal loss in the mid-trimester or spontaneous pre-term birth due to painless cervical dilation. For non-pregnant women with cervical insufficiency, prophylactic laparoscopic abdominal cerclage (LAC) has been reported to improve pregnancy outcomes, such as live birth, neonatal survival, and full-term delivery rate.

Article Synopsis
- Laparoscopic Robot-assisted surgery is a cutting-edge advancement in surgical technology, particularly benefiting reproductive medicine by enhancing fertility and providing innovative treatment options for gynecological conditions.
- Compared to traditional open surgery, it offers reduced post-surgical hospital stays and blood loss, with mixed results on operative times due to varying surgeon experience.
- Despite challenges like high costs and lack of tactile feedback, recent improvements—including the integration of Artificial Intelligence—are enhancing its applications for fertility preservation in female cancer survivors and other reproductive surgeries.

This video-article describes a laparoscopic cervico-isthmic cerclage technique for managing cervical insufficiency in both pregnant and non-pregnant patients, utilizing a port-site closure device for precise suture placement. Two cases-one non-pregnant and one at 12 weeks gestation-underwent the procedure, with details on trocar placement, dissection, and suture passage documented. Both surgeries were completed successfully, with minimal blood loss and no complications.

Article Synopsis
- Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a serious global pregnancy complication primarily caused by uterine atony, where second-line treatments like uterine balloon tamponade are essential for managing severe cases.
- Balloon displacement poses a challenge in effectively treating PPH, leading to potential treatment failures; several techniques have been proposed to mitigate this issue, including vaginal packing and cervical sutures.
- This review highlights various strategies for managing PPH, discussing their benefits and limitations to help healthcare providers make informed decisions tailored to specific clinical situations.
