Conditions
Summary
This thesis conducts the effect of using different suture materials on the development of uterine scar niche after cesarean section. The difference between monofilament and multifilament sutures and the special properties of each one . The primary outcome of the study is to know which material conducts more scar niche formation . Secondary outcomes are the extent of blood loss , the need of extra hemostatic sutures
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria4
- Age: 20-45 years old
- Singleton pregnancy.
- Gestational age between 37 completed weeks to 42 weeks.
- Patients undergoing elective primary caesarean section
Exclusion Criteria5
- History of uterine surgery (e.g. hysterotomy, myomectomy, perforation, caesarean section). (to be able to differentiate between the recent CS scar and the old scar)
- Abnormal placental invasion (placenta previa and accrete ) ( more liable to undergo Cesarean hysterectomy)
- Uterine anomalies (e.g., septum, Mullerian anomalies or fibroids). (may be localized at the suture line and therefore affect the scar)
- Drugs intake that affects bleeding or tissue healing e.g., anti-coagulants, immunosuppressive drugs and chronic use of steroids (more than 14 days pre-operative)
- Any medical Co-morbidity (diabetes mellitus, Hypertension and Thyroid abnormalities) (more liable to affect the healing)
