Abstract
Objective To determine the obstetric results after conisation at the Leon Hospital (Spain) between 1999 and 2007. Material and method We performed a retrospective cohort study of 338 conisations. Thirty-six women conceived and a total of 46 pregnancies were obtained during the study period. The following variables were analysed: maternal age, obstetric antecedents, smoking, the diagnoses motivating the conisation, final histopathological diagnosis, height of the extirpated cone, conisation-childbirth interval, type of labor, and gestational age and weight of the newborn. Results Of the 30 pregnancies that exceeded 24 weeks, 20% ended preterm. No differences were found when the groups were compared according to smoking. None of the newborns was underweight for gestational age. Conclusions A significant statistical association was observed between conisation and preterm delivery, independently of cone length or the conisation-labor interval. No statistical association was found between low birthweight and conisation.
