Résumé

Fertility-sparing treatments are increasingly used in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. The residual shortened cervix might increase the risk of preterm birth. When a vaginal cerclage is not technically feasible, a laparoscopic transabdominal cerclage (LAC) could be offered before or after conception. In this article, we show how to safely perform a post-conceptional LAC in patients with insufficient residual cervical length for vaginal cerclage.
