Ultrasound Evaluation of Uterine Healing After Vaginal Repair of Cesarean Scar Defect (CSD)

NCT04786626 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 60

Last updated 2021-03-23

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Cesarean scar defect is one of the complications after cesarean section (CSD). CSD may be further caused many long term complications, such as abnormal uterine bleeding, infertility, uterine scar pregnancy and uterine rupture. Vaginal repair due to CSDs is a minimally invasive and effective method that maintains fertility. The main concern linked to surgery is the quality of healing of the myometrial incision. However, no diagnostic method has yet been widely accepted to assess the healing process. Thus, the authors investigated uterine healing after vaginal repair with two-dimensional (2D) power Doppler ultrasound (PDU) in this study.
