Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Cervicovaginal fistulas that develop after midtrimester abortion represent a significant risk to subsequent pregnancies. Since patients with this condition appear to be at increased risk for preterm labor and cervical incompetence, I recommend a cerclage procedure. The probability of complications during labor in such cases makes elective cesarean delivery the method of choice.
