Abstract:
Objective To discuss the clinical efficacy and safety of bilateral internal iliac artery Fogarty balloon occlusion in uterine curettage for patients with cesarean scar pregnancy(CSP).Methods The clinical data of a total of 80 CSP patients,who were admitted to the Fuyang People's Hospital of China between January 2021 and September 2022 to receive treatment,were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into the observation group(n=40)and the control group(n=40).For the patients of the observation group,the hysteroscopic uterine curettage was carried out under the situation of bilateral internal iliac artery Fogarty balloon occlusion and during the operation the internal iliac artery was intermittently blocked.The embryo was removed,and the hemostasis was accomplished by electrocoagulation or surgical suture.For the patients of the control group,the hysteroscopic uterine curettage was performed within 1-2 days after uterine artery embolization(UAE).The digital subtraction angiography(DSA)fluoroscopy time,body surface radiation dose,blood loss during uterine curettage,time spent for uterine curettage,length of hospital stay,and postoperative follow-up results were compared between the two groups.Results Successful uterine curettage was accomplished and the uterus was retained in all the patients.In the observation group,no balloon-related complications occurred.In the control group,all the 40 patients developed different degrees of fever,pain at uterine area,and other post-embolization symptoms after UAE.In the observation group and the control group,the DSA fluoroscopy time was(9.2±1.1)seconds and(1 273.6±141.1)seconds respectively,the body surface radiation dose was(7.7±0.8)mGy and(1 503.8±101.8)mGy respectively,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(both P<0.05);the blood loss during uterine curettage was(30.3±14.7)mL and(27.5±13.2)mL respectively,the time spent for uterine curettage was(41.6±16.2)min and(42.8±15.0)min respectively,the differences between the two groups were not statistically significant(both P>0.05);the length of hospital stay was(6.0±0.7)days and(7.3±0.8)days respectively,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).All patients were followed up for more than 3 months,the time of β-hCG turning to negative,time of vaginal bleeding,time of menstruation returning to normal,and patient satisfaction rate in the observation group were(21.1±2.4)days,(8.2±1.1)days,(29.5±2.2)days and 95.0%(38/40)respectively,which in the control group were(24.6±3.3)days,(13.6±2.6)days,(46.7±7.3)days and 67.5%(27/40)respectively,the differences in the above indexes between the two groups were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Conclusion In performing uterine curettage for CSP patients,both bilateral internal iliac artery Fogarty balloon occlusion and UAE can significantly reduce the intraoperative blood loss,but bilateral internal iliac artery Fogarty balloon occlusion is superior to UAE in reducing radiation dose,in shortening the patient's hospital stay,the time of β-hCG turning to negative,the time of vaginal bleeding and the time of menstruation returning to normal,and in improving the patient satisfaction rate.
