Re: Uterine Closure Post C/SFrom: Griffiths Malcolm (Malcolm.Griffiths@ldh-tr.anglox.nhs.uk)Sun Jul 13 06:13:55 2003
Seen it twice. Once only called to deal with uncontrollable bleeding. Failed to appreciate anatomy of anterior lower flap of LS until half way though hysterectomy! Malcolm Griffiths Clinical Director & Consultant O&G -----Original Message----- From: Gerald P. Rodríguez [mailto:geraldpr@cybermesa.com] Sent: 12 July 2003 23:20 To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Subject: Uterine Closure Post C/S Years ago, I was assisting a resident at a C/Section and we were 2/3 of the way with closing the low-transverse uterine incision when I realized that we were sewing the upper edge of the uterine to the back wall of the uterus. There was a transverse ridge in this area which fooled us both into thinking that we were suturing the upper to the lower edges. Has anyone else seen this happen? Gerald P.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
