title: [Spiral cesarean section--hysterography].
abstract: Spiral caesarean section is a new technique to open the uterus. The following benefits are claimed for the new method, with reference being made to experience obtained separately at two hospitals:--1. The effect of uterus opening to expose the head of the foetus was higher by something between 19 and 38 per cent, as compared to all other methods. 2. Delivery was possible even from mid-pelvic level, and it was also possible at any stage of labour from breech and transverse positions. 3. Incisions would not further open towards the edge of the uterus, and larger blood loss was thus prevented. 4. The uterus scar was solid, as confirmed by hysterography in this report.
