          Abstract

          RESUMEN Introducción: se define incompetencia cervical como la incapacidad del cuello uterino de retener una gestación en el segundo trimestre, en ausencia de contracciones uterinas. El cerclaje cervical es la intervención que ha demostrado utilidad en el tratamiento de la incompetencia cervical. La principal vía utilizada para cerclaje es la vaginal, sin embargo existe un grupo de pacientes en el que ésta no es posible y debe realizarse un abordaje transabdominal. Este trabajo muestra los resultados y experiencia de 30 años en la instalación de cerclaje por vía abdominal abierta. Se realiza una revisión de la literatura y se discuten sus indicaciones, resultados y complicaciones. Además se analiza la técnica quirúrgica, especialmente las variantes de ella y el momento de realizar la intervención. Métodos: se revisaron datos de 20 pacientes a las que se realizó cerclaje transabdominal, desde el año 1985 hasta la fecha. En todas las cirugías participó el autor principal de este artículo. Resultados: las intervenciones se realizaron entre las 8 y 18 semanas de gestación. Las causas principales fueron la imposibilidad de realizar un cerclaje por vía vaginal, debido a ausencia de cuello por conizaciones amplias o repetidas y amputaciones cervicales o fracaso de cerclajes por vía vaginal previos. Las 20 pacientes tuvieron 23 embarazos, 20 partos (16 mayores de 37 s. y 4 mayores de 34 s.) y 3 abortos. Se obtuvo un 87% de sobrevida fetal. Conclusiones: la utilización de esta técnica es útil en pacientes con imposibilidad de cerclaje por vía vaginal o en fracasos de cerclajes vaginales previos. La literatura revisada no muestra diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los procedimientos realizados previos o durante la gestación, ni tampoco si se realiza mediante laparoscopía o cirugía abierta.

          SUMMARY Introduction: cervical incompetence is defined as the inability of the cervix to retain a pregnancy in the second trimester, in the absence of uterine contractions. Cervical cerclage is the intervention that has proven its usefulness in the treatment of cervical incompetence. The main route used for cerclage is vaginal, however there is a group of patients in which this is not possible and a transabdominal approach must be performed. This work shows the results and experience of 30 years in the installation of cerclage by abdominal open route. A review of the literature is made and its indications, results and complications are discussed. In addition, the surgical technique is analyzed, especially it's variants and the moment of performing the intervention. Methods: data from 20 patients who underwent a transabdominal cerclage from 1985 to date were reviewed. In all the surgeries, the main author of this article participated. Results: the interventions were performed between 8 and 18 weeks of gestation. The main causes were the impossibility of performing a cerclage by vaginal route due to absence of the cervix by extensive or repeated conizations and cervical amputations or failure of previous cerclage by vaginal route. The 20 patients had 23 pregnancies, 20 deliveries (16 over 37 w. and 4 over 34 w.) and 3 abortions. 87% of fetal survival was obtained. Conclusions: the use of this technique is useful in patients with inability to cerclage vaginally or in failures of previous vaginal cerclages. The literature reviewed does not show statistically significant differences between the procedures performed before or during pregnancy, nor whether it is performed by laparoscopy or open surgery.

          ACOG Practice Bulletin No.142: Cerclage for the management of cervical insufficiency.

          (2014)
          The inability of the uterine cervix to retain a pregnancy in the second trimester is referred to as cervical insufficiency. Controversy exists in the medical literature pertaining to issues of pathophysiology, screening, diagnosis, and management of cervical insufficiency. The purpose of this document is to provide a review of current evidence of cervical insufficiency, including screening of asymptomatic at-risk women, and to offer guidelines on the use of cerclage for management. The diagnosis and management of other cervical issues during pregnancy, such as short cervical length, are discussed more in-depth in other publications of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
