Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Experienced two late miscarriages at 18-20 weeks, due to cervical insufficiency. Would like to learn about cervical cerclage.Doctor's answer:
Neck ligation is a surgical procedure to close the cervix. It is generally considered a minor to moderate surgery and requires local anesthesia. The procedure typically takes about half an hour. Cervical ligation should be performed in a hospital with at least secondary-level facilities. It is best to find a doctor who has experience with cervical ligation and is relatively older to perform the surgery for you.
