Definition of birth canal: - The passageway through which the fetus is expelled during parturition, leading from the uterus through cervix, vagina and vulva. - Vagina, vulva and perineum are often injured during expulsion stage of labor
WHAT IS BIRTH CANAL?

Bones -pelvic minor
STRUCTURES OF BIRTH CANAL
Soft tissue - Uterus, vagina and external reproductive organs

The types of trauma in birth canal is classified based on localisation : - Cervix - Vagina - Perineum
BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA
![Page 6: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
CERVICAL LACERATIONS
- Cervical tears are most presented in the lateral cervical sides - Rupture of the cervix is characterized by persistent
bleeding from a contracted firm uterus
There are 3 degrees of cervical lacerations: 1. First degree lacerations - Length of cervical rupture not over 2cm 2. Second degree lacerations - Length of rupture >2cm but does not extend to vaginal fornices 3. Third degree lacerations - Ruptured area extends to the vaginal fornices - If extends to vaginal fornices : very dangerous

- Rigidity of cervix - Abnormal structure due to scarring from
previous surgery - Rapid delivery of head in breech presentation
CAUSES OF CERVICAL LACERATIONS
![Page 8: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
TREATMENT OF CERVICAL LACERATIONS
• Deep cervical tears should be repaired immediately
• Treatment varies with the extent of the lesion.
When the laceration is limited to the cervix – or even when it
extends somewhat into vaginal fornix
• We can view the cervical tears at the vulva by applies firm downward pressure on the uterus while the operator exerts traction on the lips of the cervix with fenestrated ovum or sponge forceps

VAGINAL LACERATIONS - Usually longitudinal - Lacerations frequently extend deep into the underlying tissues and may give rise to significant hemorrhage - Causes of vaginal lacerations can be traumatic or spontaneous: - The repair of vaginal tears is in placing of interrupted
catgut suture in the edges of the wound
TRAUMATIC SPONTANEOUS
Injuries during forceps delivery
Fetal malpresentation (Esp fetal head extension)
Insufficient distensibility of vaginal wall
Large fetal head

- Classification of perineal lacerations: - 1. First degree - 2. Second degree - 3. Third degree - 4. Fourth degree
PERINEUM LACERATIONS Delivery may lead to overstretching of the vagina, causing tears
in the perineum, between the vagina and rectum.

- The least severe - Superficial tear that involve perineal
skin ,underlying tissue and superficial muscle ( musculus constrictor ani)
FIRST DEGREE LACERATION
![Page 12: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
SECOND DEGREE LACERATION - Extends to more deep muscle layer of pelvic diaphragm , muscle levator ani
![Page 13: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
THIRD DEGREE LACERATION - Lacerations extend farther to involve perineal body and circular muscle sphincter ani
![Page 14: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
- The most severe type - The laceration extends through the rectum’s
mucosa to expose anorectal lumen
FOURTH DEGREE LACERATION
![Page 15: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Factors predisposing to Laceration of Perineum
Factors which increase risk of third- and fourth-degree lacerations: 1. Nulliparity 2. Prolong second-stage of labor 3. Persistent occiput posterior position 4. Mid or low forceps 5. Asian race (height) 6. Giant baby / macrosomia 7. Rigidity of perineal muscle 8. Epidural/peridural anesthesia
![Page 16: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
EPISIOTOMY
- Also known as perineotomy - Incision of perineum and posterior vaginal wall during second stage of labor - Purposes of episiotomy : - Easier to repair the laceration - postoperative pain is less and healing improved with an episiotomy compared with a tear - prevent pelvic floor complications (vaginal wall support defects and incontinence)
![Page 17: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
-
Indications of Episiotomy
- When see threatening signs of perineal laceration - The baby is very large ( need to deliver quickly to avoid any resistance) - When the perineal muscles are excessively rigid
![Page 18: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
-
Types of Episiotomy Median or Midline episiotomy Mediolateral episiotomy
Incision is made at midline, from center of the fourchette and extends on posterior side along midline for 2.5 cm
begin in the midline but be directed laterally and downward away from the rectum, either to left or right about 2.5cm from the anus (midpoint between anus and ischial tuberosity)
Better because it wouldn’t extend until anus
![Page 19: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
-
Midline episiotomy being made. Two fingers are insinuated between the perineum and fetal head, and the episiotomy is then cut vertically downward
![Page 20: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
-
Episiotomy Repair The repair of perineal tears is same as episiotomy incisions
1. Repair of first-degree lacerations - start from the upper angle of the wound - The vaginal mucosa is closed by interrupted catgut suture. And then the perineal skin are sutured - The sutured wound should be treated with an iodine tincture 2. Repair of second-degree lacerations - The upper angle of the wound is first sutured - Then the lacerated perineal muscles are repaired by several buried catgut sutures - After that, the same technique as in the first-degree lacerations
![Page 21: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Episiotomy Repair
3. Repair of Third-degree lacerations - rectal mucosa has been repaired with interrupted, fine chronic catgut sutures - The torn ends of the sphincter ani are next approximated with two or three interrupted chromic catgut sutures - The wound is then repaired, as in a second degree laceration
![Page 22: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Uterus Rupture
- One of the most dangerous labor complication - A spontaneous or traumatic rupture of the uterus
with extrusion of the fetus or fetal parts into the peritoneal cavity
- By definition, it is associated with the following: - Clinically significant uterine bleeding - Fetal distress - Protrusion or expulsion of the fetus and/or placenta into the abdominal cavity - Need for prompt cesarean delivery - Uterine repair or hysterectomy
![Page 23: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Classification of Uterus Rupture 1. Classification by Pathogenesis
Spontaneous - Histochemical etiology of uterine rupture - occurs without any function of uterus - Example: (i) Anatomy anomaly (ii) Dystrophy diseases (connective tissue autoimmune disease, Inflammatory disease of uterus)
Voluntary - result of hyperfunction of uterus - Example: (i) Disproportion between sizes of presenting part and maternal pelvis (malpresentation) (ii) Extra doses of uterotonic drugs

Classification of Uterus Rupture
2. Classification by Layers of Uterus involved in Rupture
Complete rupture Incomplete rupture
3. Classification by Location of Rupture
Lower segment rupture Rupture of corpus/fundus of uterus
![Page 25: BIRTH CANAL TRAUMA AND UTERUS RUPTURE](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/554b0c70b4c9055d098b46d6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Signs of Threatened Uterine Uterus Rupture
- Signs that occur just during the labor - Excessive uterine activity. Uterine
contractions are very fast and painful - Lower uterine segment is overdistended,
thinned and painful at palpation - The margins of the cervical os becomes
edematous due to compression. The edematous extends to the vagina and the perineum
- Urination becomes difficult due to compression of the bladder and urethra between the bony pelvis and the fetal head
- Some bloody discharge maybe presented (depends)
- Pathological contractile Bandl’s ring is presented

Treatments of Uterine Rupture
Whenever a threatening uterus rupture is seen, immediate Caesarian section must be done!

Managements of Uterine Rupture
- blood transfusion - Emergency exploratory laparotomy with cesarean delivery - Surgical repair of uterus or removal of uterus (hysterectomy), types of surgical treatment depends on Type of uterine rupture : - Extent of uterine rupture - Degree of hemorrhage - General condition of the mother - Mother’s desire for future childbearing When the tear is simple, transverse in the lower segment, and in the absence of infection => Repair by suturing When the ruptures were longitudinal on the lateral aspects of lower and upper segments of the uterus and the bleeding is uncontrollable (severe) => Hysterectomy
