Effectiveness of CERvico-isthmic CErclage in Increasing the Rate of Live Births in Case of a History of Late Miscarriage and/or Premature Delivery

This study compares the rate of live births before and after cervico-isthmic cerclage in 3 hospitals in the last 10 years. The hypothesis is that cerclage significantly increases the rate of live births in women with cervical insufficiency.
