MANAGEMENT
ISTHMUS- Narrow part between cervix & corpus of uterus. Same histological structures as corpus of uteru s i ncorporated into cavity of uterus during pregnancy – isthmus opens up, so anatomical internal os ceases to exist, only histological os remains.
Hegar’s sign- At 6-10 wks. Seen in 2/3 rd of cases Bimanual palpation Fingers of both hands approximate ,there is softening of isthmus with gestational sac in the u pper cavity and empty lower cavity
Symphysio fundal height ( SFH ) in cm, after 24 weeks upto 36 weeks corresponds to number of weeks SFH can be used to clinically calculate the estimated fetal weight using Johnson’s formula Fetal weight = (SFH – n) x 155 n =12 if vertex is above ischial spine, n=11 is vertex is below ischial spine
Arrangement of muscle fibres- 1. Outer longitudinal : hoodlike layer ,arches over fundus and extends into various ligaments. 2. Middle layer : thickest and strongest, arranged in criss cross fashion. Apposition of 2 double curve muscle fibres – fig of 8 form which form the “ living ligatures ”. 3 . Inner circular : sphincter like fibres around fallopian tube orifices and internal os of cervix.
Muscle fibre undergoes elongation, apposition of 2 double curves make figure of 8 that contract to occlude the blood vessels running in between them. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE : occlusion of vessels during contractions helps in reducing the amount of blood loss postpartum
