Anterior Uterocervical Angle and Prediction of Preterm Labor in Cases with an Inconclusive Cervical Length: A Prospective Cohort Pilot Study

Clinical and Experimental Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2023
Background: Cervical length measurement is still the most widely used method to predict preterm labor. Recent studies have reported that in addition to cervical length, uterocervical angle (UCA) may also be useful in predicting preterm labor.

Uterocervical angle as a predictor of spontaneous preterm birth in twin pregnancies

The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2020
To assess the ability of uterocervical angle (UCA) compared with cervical length (CL) to predict the risk of spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) in twin pregnancies and its performance when it was included in a combined predictive model of clinical and ultrasonographic parameters.

Anterior uterocervical angle: is it an ultrasonographic screening tool that estimates the latent phase duration in post term pregnancies?

, 2023
Objectives: In recent years, in addition to cervical length measurement, a new ultrasonographic parameter has been defined  as uterocervical angle (UCA), which can be used in the prediction of preterm labor.

Uterocervical angle as a predictor of preterm birth on a high‐risk collective between 20 and 31 weeks of gestation: A cohort analysis

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 99, Issue 11, Page 1527-1533, November 2020., 2020
Abstract Introduction The cervical length (CL) measurement is a widely used method to estimate the risk of preterm birth. Due in particular to the high false‐positive rate, the establishment of markers with improved test characteristics is a great challenge.

Should phenotype of previous preterm birth influence management of women with short cervix in subsequent pregnancy? Comparison of vaginal progesterone and Arabin pessary

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 53, Issue 4, Page 529-534, April 2019., 2019
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate whether the classification of a previous spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) as preterm labor (PTL) with intact membranes (IM) or as preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM) impacts the efficacy of cervical pessary or vaginal progesterone for prevention of sPTB in pregnant women with short cervix on transvaginal ...

Impact of Uterocervical Angle on Preterm Birth

, 2022
INTRODUCTION: Preterm birth is defined by ACOG as birth between 28 weeks of gestation to 37 weeks of gestation. Preterm birth complications are the leading cause of neonatal death. preterm babies are at increased risk of neuro developmental impairments,

Ultrasound measurement of the uterocervical angle before embryo transfer: a prospective controlled study [PDF]

Human Reproduction, 2002
The study aim was to determine whether moulding the embryo transfer catheter according to the uterocervical angle measured by ultrasound could improve pregnancy and implantation rates.Patients were alternately allocated to one of two groups. In the ultrasound-guided group (n = 320), the catheter was moulded according to the uterocervical angle measured
