【Abstract】 Objective To explore the effect of laparoscopic cervical cerclage for treatment of patients with cervical insufficiency in nonpregnant phase. Methods Patients with cervical insufficiency in our hospital from January 2011 to January 2016 were analyzed. According to the surgical methods, patients were divided into test group treated with laparoscopic cervical cerclage, and control group treated with transvaginal cervical cerclage. Related intraoperative and postoperative data as well as pregnancy outcome were compared. Results A total of 57 patients were included, with 30 patients in test group and 27 patients in control group. All of the trial patients were cured without major complications. Intraoperative bleeding volume of test group(110±24ml) was significantly lower than that of the control group (271±83ml). Length of stay of test group (24±07d) was significantly shorter than that of control group(53±09d) (P＜005). The number of full term delivery （gestational age≥37 weeks）of test group was 24 patients (80%)，the number of full term delivery of control group was 14 patients (519%) (P＜0. 05). Birth weight of test group (3218±521g) was significantly higher than that of the control group (2787±586g) (P＜0. 05). Conclusion Pregnancy outcome of patients with cervical insufficiency can be improved by laparoscopic cervical cerclage.
