Outcome of unplanned vaginal deliveries after two previous caesarean sections.
Once a caesarean section always a caesarean section may not stand true any more but twice a caesarean section always a caesarean section still stays put because of its high maternal and foetal complications. Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre is large tertiary care hospital and has a caesarean section rate of over 18%, 10 patients (3.9%) were picked up in a retrospective study who had vaginal delivery after 2 previous caesarean sections in 2 years. They were admitted late in labour. Only one patient had dehiscence of scar. The aim of the study was to evaluate the outcome and safety of vaginal deliveries after 2 previous caesarean sections even when the trial was not conducted at the hospital.
