title: [Amniocentesis and mother's bladder overfilling in operative treatment of advanced cervical incompetence].
abstract: We describe two cases treated for cervical incompetence with prolapsed fetal membranes with emergency cerclage. Two methods of membranes reducing were used: transabdominal amniocentesis and bladder overfilling. We recommend these procedures in patients with advanced cervical incompetence when the membrane reduction by Trendelenburg position or pharmacological tocolysis were ineffective.
