Description
Yanyan Bai and three colleagues recount in 2026 how a new belt-like stitching technique saved the uterus of a mother bleeding unstoppably during a cesarean delivery. The woman, just past forty weeks and diabetic, had a placenta fused densely to the womb wall with patches growing into its back surface. Blood loss reached two and a half liters while standard measures failed one by one.
Crews tried manual placenta removal, forceps, ordinary stitches, contraction drugs, artery ties, figure-of-eight sutures, and packing, none of which stopped the bleeding. A quadruple modified belt suture then compressed the whole uterine segment evenly and achieved control. Careful follow-up care prevented infection, clotting, and tissue death, and scans three months later looked normal. The authors lay out the technique as a reproducible emergency protocol.
