    To evaluate the rate of success and practicability of the intrauterine tamponade balloon (ITB) for managing PPH as a fertility-sparing tool. Methods: a five-year retrospective monocentric study in a tertiary care center including patients transferred for severe PPH. Results: In 231 patients, the success rate of ITB (n = 57), embolization (n = 58), and medical management (n = 114) was 84.21%, 74.13%, and 76.32%, respectively. Cesarean section during labor did not influence the risk of advanced interventional procedures (AIPs) for patients with ITB (odds ratio OR = 1.08) but did so in patients who were under expectant management in the intensive care (OR = 5.29). In the AIP subgroup of the ITB group, hemostasis was significantly deteriorated. Prothrombin time <50% (OR = 11.5), fibrinogen <2 g/L (OR = 6.88), and >4 red blood cells units (RBCs) transfused (OR = 17.2) were associated with a significantly higher risk of failure. Blood loss in the AIP patients in the embolization group was significantly higher. Patients requiring >4 units of RBCs were 22.9 times more likely to have an AIP (p = .0001). Conclusion: Compared with uterine embolization and medical management, ITB use in a tertiary care center was associated with lower risk of undergoing AIP, but further prospective study is required to confirm this.
