[Surgical methods for treatment of non-pregnant women for cervical insufficiency (author's transl)].

The authors have submitted a modified technique by which to treat severe cervical insufficiency in gynaecological practice, outside pregnancy. The technique may be used with generosity, since no particular technical problems are involved, and complications are ruled which may otherwise occur, when surgery is applied during pregnancy. The method also provides additional advantages over other surgical approaches commonly taken to non-pregnant women, in that it proved helpful in eliminating not only dilatation of the internal os uteri, but other pathological conditions of the cervix uteri, as well.
