Routine Bilateral Uterine Artery Ligation During the Cesarean Delivery of Multiple Gestation

Multiple pregnancy is well defined to be associated with a greater risk of postpartum blood loss . Interventions to control PPH generally stepped from less to more invasive and including compression maneuvers , drugs , and further radical surgeries. Conservative management plans such as medications which cause the uterus to contract, external massage to the uterine body , and bimanual compression are overall used as 1st line interventions.PPH was defined as a cumulative blood loss of 1,000 mL or more, or blood loss that occurred within 24 hours of childbirth and was accompanied by indications or symptoms of hypervolemia. The most frequent cause of PPH, which accounted for roughly 80% of cases, is uterine atony (3).PPH is brought on by hyperexpansion, which impaired uterine myometrial contractility and caused uterine contraction fatigue , PPH were twice as high when pregnant with twins (4).The only effective surgical treatment for blood loss is a hysterectomy, but this is a risky procedure, especially for young women.(5)Due to this, a number of fertility-preserving surgical procedures have been developed, including the B-Lynch technique, internal iliac artery ligation, and uterine artery ligation (UAL) One of the most widely used surgical methods for preserving fertility is UAL. It is simple to carry out and works well to control PPH. Additionally, it permits patients to have more children in the future and is generally safe. Additionally, it has a success rate of above 90%.Concerns have been raised about its effect on women who want to become pregnant in the future regarding their ovarian reserve. The accepted practice of medicine worldwide is the prophylactic use of uterotonics. A synthetic oxytocin analogue with a lengthy half-life, carbetocin also stimulates uterine contractions .One benefit of carbetocin over oxytocin is that it is more heat-stable, which is of greater importance to low resource settings . Studies compare the effectiveness of carbetocin and oxytocin in preventing PPH and find that carbetocin is equally effective or even more effective.
