摘要：

Background: Postpartum hemorrhage is a major contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality. Numerous medical and surgical therapies have been used, but none has been uniformly successful. Case: Two women with postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine atony after cesarean for twins are presented. Neither responded to medical management. In the first subject, O'Leary uterine artery ligation and utero-ovarian branch ligations were done without benefit. The B-Lynch suture immediately sustained correction of hemorrhage in both subjects. Magnetic resonance imaging and hysterosalpingogram after the first case showed no uterine defects. Conclusion: The B-Lynch suture might be a valuable addition to the surgical treatment of postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine atony.
