[A modified Sarafoff suture for closure of the uterine wound in Cesarean section].
Using a retrospective investigation the authors demonstrate the advantage of the modified Sarafoff-suture (a one layer suture of the myometrium) in comparison with the two-layer suture. The results shows a lower rate of febrile courses, less postoperative complications and a shorter hospital stay. The first clinical experiences showed less scar complications in the courses of vaginal delivery in patients with a previous caesarean section. Therefore, the authors advise the modified Sarafoff-suture for wound closure in caesarean section.
