Ultrasound cesarean scar assessment one  year postpartum in relation to one‐ or two‐layer uterine suture closure

ConclusionsThe findings of this study demonstrate that double ‐layer technique with the first continuous nonlocking suture followed by a second continuous nonlocking suture is associated with better suture healing and greater residual myometrial thickness. No difference was observed between single‐ and double‐layer closure for the presence of maternal in fectious morbidity, wound infection or blood transfusion.
