False
Transabdominal cerclage placement is usually performed either prior to conception or during early pregnancy (at 11 to 14 weeks). Placement of the cerclage later in pregnancy is undesirable since the large size of the uterus makes the procedure difficult and thus may be associated with a higher risk of complications.

The suture is not removed at 36 weeks.
The rule in case of abdominal cervical cerclage is delivery by cesarean section.
