    Author: Holtsema H, Nijland R, Huisman A, Dony J, van den Berg PP.

    Abstract:
    Postpartum haemorrhage may be a life threatening complication. Seven cases are described in which the B-Lynch surgical technique (a brace like suture over the uterus) was successful in obtaining haemostasis. In four cases, the B-Lynch technique was the first line of treatment. In three cases, the B-Lynch was used after, or in combination with artery or other vessel ligation.
