[Obstetric hemostatic ligation of the uterine arteries].
The authors propose a new technique of bilateral ligation of the uterine arteries at their origin, in order to save the patient's life, the uterus and the adnexae in cases of refractory post-partum haemorrhage, especially associated with placenta praevia. To date, they have only performed this operation on cadavers at the first stage in their study. This technique could be performed surgically in most cases and presents certain advantages over the bilateral ligation of the uterine arteries at the level of the arch.
