Summary

This retrospective observational study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Removable Uterine Compression Sutures (RUCS) in the surgical management of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). Eleven patients who developed PPH and underwent RUCS between January 2020 and November 2024 at Gaziosmanpaşa Training and Research Hospital were included. The primary outcomes assessed were hemorrhage control and procedure-related complications. Data were collected from patient records and analyzed descriptively.

PROCEDURE

Removable Uterine Compression Suture (RUCS)

Removable Uterine Compression Suture (RUCS) is a uterus-preserving surgical technique used to control postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) when medical management fails. The suture is placed in a way that allows for its removal after hemostasis is achieved, potentially reducing the risk of complications such as intrauterine synechiae. In this study, RUCS was applied to 11 patients following delivery-related hemorrhage.
