Dr. Hema Relwani, Dr Reena Wani

Abstract :

Objectives: We sought to determine the frequency, demographic characteristics, indications, and feto–maternal outcomes associated with peripartum hysterectomy in a tertiary care institute. Methods: This was a retrospective, observational, analytical study of parturient women requiring peripartum hysterectomy over a six–year period, from August 2013 to October 2019 IN Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Dr. R.N Cooper Hospital,Mumbai. Results: Out of 20,992 deliveries, the incidence of obstetric hysterectomy in our study was 0.038% following vaginal delivery, and 0.22% following caesarean section. The overall incidence was 0.1% .The most common indication was Atonic PPH corresponding to 47.84%. Maternal Mortality was noted in 39% of the cases. Conclusions: A balanced approach to OH can prove to be lifesaving at times when conservative surgical modalities fail specially in modern obstetrics in the face of rising rates of cesarean section and multiple pregnancies
