Introduction: Cesarean section scar defect (isthmocele) is a common complication after cesarean section that can cause problems such as spotting and pelvic pain. Sutures play an important role in wound healing, and the type of suture used can affect the healing process and reducing complications. The present study was conducted with aim to compare the effects of two types of surgical sutures, Vicryl and chromic, on isthmocele formation and related complications after cesarean section.
Methods: This randomized clinical trial study was conducted in 2023 on 170 pregnant women with singleton term pregnancies who had no previous cesarean section at Kowsar Hospital, Qazvin. Participants were randomly divided into two groups of using chromic suture (n=85) and Vicryl (n=85) to close the uterine incision. Three months after cesarean section, all women underwent vaginal ultrasound and the necessary information was recorded regarding the presence of isthmocele, isthmocele size, residual myometrial thickness at the scar (RMT) and total myometrial thickness (TMT). Also, the presence of spotting was examined during this time period. Data analysis was performed using SPSS statistical software (version 24) and t-test, Mann-Whitney and chi-square tests. P< 0.05 was considered significant.
Results: Age and other demographic characteristics did not differ significantly between the two groups, 96.1% (n=74) of women who underwent cesarean section with Vicryl suture and 98.7% (n=75) of women who underwent cesarean section with chromiuc suture developed isthmocele (p>0.05). Also, 1.3% (n=1) of women who underwent cesarean section with Vicryl suture and 9.2% (n=7) of women who underwent cesarean section with chromiuc suture developed spotting (p<0.01).
Conclusion: Vicryl suture can reduce the complications such as spotting in women, but in our study, no difference was observed in terms of isthmocele formation and its size between the uses of chromic and Vicryl sutures.
