Abstract
Objective(s): Cervical incompetence is an important cause of recurrent pregnancy loss, typically presenting in the second trimester with silent cervical dilation and premature delivery of the fetus. We aimed to evaluate the conception rate and time to conception or failure to conceive after preconceptional laparoscopic abdominal cerclage (LAC).
