“…[ 5 ] Only a few cases were reported regarding complications after vaginal or laparoscopic abdominal cerclage using Mersilene tape following radical trachelectomy. [ 6 7 8 9 10 ] Placement of foreign body such as Mersilene tape can be a risk factor for poor wound healing; hence, prone to infection which is seen in the index patient as vaginal mersilene tape erosion. Dissection of the pelvic floor spaces may contribute to the disruption of the integrity of the pelvic floor.…”

A case of a 32-year-old patient who presented with vaginal bleeding 2 years after undergoing laparoscopic radical trachelectomy and vaginal cerclage was noted to have Mersilene tape erosion. Subsequent management includes the removal of displaced Mersilene tape and a repeat cerclage through a new technique of laparoscopic abdominal cerclage to avoid repeat tape erosion. The novel technique of laparoscopic abdominal cerclage to lower the incidence of preterm delivery among pregnant patients who underwent laparoscopic radical trachelectomy for early-stage cervical cancer is described.
