Obstetric haemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal death worldwide (27.1%) and more than 66% of its deaths were classified as postpartum haemorrhage (PPH). The most common cause of PPH is uterine atony. Obstetrician should be skillful in managing obstetric emergencies; especially pertaining to PPH. Application of the B-Lynch suture on an atonic uterus is one of the surgical options in PPH patients who wish to conserve the uterus and it has a very high success rate.We present a primigravida patient who developed massive primary PPH followed by disseminated intravascular coagulation, which was successfully managed with B-Lynch suture and bilateral internal iliac artery ligation. We described in detail regarding the management of massive PPH and application of these surgical procedures on the atonic uterus with an attempt to preserve the uterus and future fertility in this young patient.

Abstract Background Abnormally invasive placenta (AIP) is a term that describes cases in which there is complete or partial failure of separation of the placenta from the uterine wall following delivery of the fetus. Objective to detect the role of bilateral internal iliac artery ligation in minimizing blood loss, prior to performing Cesarean Hysterectomy in cases with confirmed preoperative or intraoperative diagnosis of Abnormally invasive placenta. Patients and Methods The study was carried out at Ain shams university maternity hospital in 2019. Women were recruited from the labor ward who underwent CS Hysterectomy. The total number of pregnant women enrolled in the study was 95 women. Approval from the Medical Ethics Committee were obtained. Results Our study showed that internal iliac artery ligation in CS hysterectomy cases for AIP has non significant lower blood loss than cases who did not underwent internal iliac artery ligation. In stead, it had increased the operative time. In comparison of 45 patients underwent internal iliac artery ligation and 45 without ligation blood loss was non significantly lower in the group who underwent ligation with mean 1933 ml blood loss in comparison with 2117 ml in the group who did not. Conclusion Bilateral internal iliac artery ligation, in cases of AIP undergoing caesarean hysterectomy, is not recommended for routine practice to minimize blood loss intraoperatively.
