title: [Delivery at the Institute for Gynecology and Obstetrics of the Messina University Polyclinic. Comparison of two periods].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Delivery methods and current pregnancy monitoring, comparing the last twenty-years in the light of new medical and diagnostic findings are presented.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Moreover, examining carefully vaginal and laparotomic delivery it is to be noticed that a more careful wait can increase spontaneous deliveries, with the due exceptions, so that the rate of cesarean section is established on current values.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  At last it is to be hoped that maternal mortality and morbility decrease and particularly fetal mortality so as to guarantee a future devoid of psychophysic handicaps to newborn infants.
