Abstract
Cervical cerclage is an established intervention for the management of pregnancies at high risk of preterm birth. Although studies exist to support its use in certain situations, particularly in singleton pregnancies, many questions such as adjunct therapies and efficacy in specific subgroups of high-risk women have not been fully elucidated. This review will assess the current evidence as well as areas where there is currently a paucity of data and an urgent requirement for further research.
