Double layer vs single layer uterine closure
in cesarean results in stronger uterine scar and increases chances of vaginal
birth in future pregnancies.
Double layer closure of uterus during
previous cesarean section results in thicker third-trimester lower uterine
segment and decreases rate of uterine rupture by 3 to 5fold during trial of
labor after cesarean (TOLAC) and vaginal birth after cesarean reports results
of multicenter prospective cohort study published in July issue of Journal
obstetrics and gynecology.
New treatment option for recurrent
implantation failure on the horizon: Short term copper IUD
Placement of Cu-IUD during
hysteroscopy for two cycles can up the pregnancy rates in patients with RIF
says results of a study published in July issue of Journal Fertility and
Sterility.
Recurrent Implantation Failure (RIF)
is very frustrating for patients and physician both. Over the decades, few

Aspirin in combination with heparin results in
more live births in Repeated Pregnancy Loss: a systemic review and
meta-analysis
Aspirin in combination with heparin ups the odds of live births 2.5 times as compared to aspirin alone among women with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) who had experienced repeated pregnancy loss says the result of a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Aspirin in combination with heparin ups the odds of live births 2.5 times as compared to aspirin alone among women with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) who had experienced repeated pregnancy loss says the result of a systematic review and meta-analysis.
The prevalence of APS in women with RPL varies according to studies,
from as low as 6% to as high as 42%, but it is generally accepted to be 5%–20%.
The results were presented at the International Society on Thrombosis
and Haemostasis (ISTH)2017 Conference.
A minimal invasive approach in management of
symptomatic post–cesarean section isthmocele: a video case report.

reservoir-like pouch defect on the anterior wall of the uterus, located at the
site of a previous cesarean delivery scar. It exact incidence is unknown
because of scarcity of data about the condition.
It is commonly found on ultrasound
