Abstract

Abstract:

Severe postpartum hemorrhage frequently leads to critical obstetric complications such as hemorrhagic shock, disseminated intravascular coagulation, renal failure, Sheehan syndrome, constituting a significant cause of maternal mortality.When severe postpartum hemorrhage occurs, all non-surgical treatment measures are ineffective, and the life safety of the mother is seriously threatened, hysterectomy becomes a life-saving intervention. This article discusses the indications, optimal timing and surgical procedures for hysterectomy in the context of severe postpartum hemorrhage.

Key words: Postpartum hemorrhage, Hysterectomy, Operative procedures
