Abstract
The B-Lynch brace suture is invaluable in the surgical management of postpartum hemorrhage, particularly as a fertility-sparing alternative to hysterectomy. In this video, we show how to create a low-cost simulator to teach the B-Lynch brace suture technique, followed by the intraoperative application of the same technique.
