Conclusions: -
This new method of localizing the bleeding point and applying a haemostatic suture on the overlying uterine muscle was found very effective. The author strongly believes that its practice at a larger level will prove very useful to obstetricians world wide. It will also help us to know any associated problems and complications when practised in large number of cases.
