SUCCESSFUL DELIVERY BY A MOTHER WITH LAPAROSCOPICALLY APPLIED ABDOMINAL CERCLAGE DURING PREGNANCY

Another great success the Hospital Plodnost’s team is especially proud of.

Successful delivery by a mother with laparoscopically applied abdominal cerclage in the 12th week of pregnancy.

Due to congenital weakness of the uterus and despite the vaginal cerclages, the patient’s previous two pregnancies ended with miscarriage, at 20-25 gestation week of the fetus.

The only way for the patient to keep the fetus was to laparoscopically apply abdominal cerclage – which was done for the first time in North Macedonia by Dr. Hristijan Trpcevski, with the assistance of Dr. Sotir Ropi.

Today we have a completely different story. In 34 gestation week, a vital male baby is born by caesarean section with a birth weight of 2310 grams.

In the past experiences of Hospital Plodnost’s medical team, there are several mothers which have successfully delivered with previous intra-abdominal laparotomy cerclages (classic surgery) during pregnancy. There are also many preventive laparoscopic cerclages in non-pregnant women with congenital weakness of the endocervix.

We are proud to have written history – for the first time in our country, our team has placed an intra-abdominal cerclage during pregnancy by laparoscopic route which resulted in successful delivery of a healthy newborn.

Highest global standards, implemented in our country. In Hospital Plodnost, anything is possible!
