Total cervical occlusion: A solution after cervico‐isthmic cerclage failure
Abstract Objective Spontaneous preterm birth is mainly caused by cervical incompetence. Cervical cerclage is the gold standard for preventing mid‐trimester losses and preterm deliveries. If cervical cerclage fails, cervico‐isthmic cerclage may be indicated.
