Postcerclage total cervical length and upper cervical length are both associated with gestational age at delivery and risk of preterm birth, but not independently. After ultrasound- or exam-indicated cerclage, sonographic monitoring of either the total cervical length or the upper cervical length might be predictive of gestational age at delivery and the risk of preterm birth.
