Niche Investigated: Closure of Hysterotomy & Evaluation of 3 Suturing Techniques (Running, Interrupted, and Locked)
Sponsor: Cairo University
Summary
This study aims to explore the impact of three different suturing techniques (Running, Interrupted \& Locked) that used to close the uterine incision at the cesarean section on the formation of a cesarean scar niche

Conditions
Interventions
Interrupted Sutures
The first layer of uterine incision will be closed using individual, separate sutures placed at regular intervals along the incision line. Each suture will be tied independently, ensuring adequate apposition of uterine tissue, followed by a second layer of running continuous sutures.
Locked Sutures
The first layer of uterine incision will be closed using continuous sutures placed along the uterine incision, incorporating a locking technique at specified intervals to prevent unraveling. The knots will be securely tied to maintain tissue approximation, followed by a second layer of running continuous sutures.
Running Continuous Sutures
Double layer closure of uterine incision using running continuous suture used to close the uterine incision without interruption, providing seamless tissue approximation throughout the incision length.
