Evaluation of the Efficacy of Laparoscopic Modified Uterine Incision Pressure Repair in Type II-III Cesarean Scar Pregnancy.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to assess the efficacy of laparoscopic modified uterine incision pressure repair in treating type II-III cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP).

METHODS

A total of 20 patients diagnosed with type II-III CSP and admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University between April 2021 and May 2023 were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups: the study group (Group A), consisting of newly treated surgical patients, and the control group (Group B), including patients with type II-III CSP treated by doctors of similar grade and surgical experience (non-novel). Various parameters, including age, menopause duration, pregnancy and delivery history, cesarean section frequency, preoperative human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) levels, pregnancy sac size, HCG turnover time, operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion requirements, and hospitalization costs, were compared.

RESULTS

When comparing mean age, menopause duration, preoperative HCG levels, pregnancy and cesarean section frequencies, pregnancy sac size, and HCG turnover time, no statistically significant differences were observed (P > .05). The number of transfusions and hospitalization costs in Group A were lower than in Group B, although the differences were not statistically significant (P > .05). However, operative time, intraoperative bleeding, and hospitalization costs were significantly lower in Group A compared to Group B (P < .05).

CONCLUSIONS

The laparoscopic modified uterine incision pressure repair method demonstrated clinical value with its advantages of short operation time, reduced bleeding, lower costs, and rapid recovery for type II-III CSP.
