Schematic presentation of Matsubara-Yano (MY) uterine compression suture and intrauterine stent placement. A needle penetrates the anterior-posterior uterine wall eight times with two longitudinal and two transverse transfixing sutures. MY suture may be technically easier and possibly leads to tighter compression than B-Lynch suture. A needle also penetrates the intrauterine stent (arrows in middle and right figures), and, thus, an absorbable stent may be preferable.
