title: [Delivery of twins by Cesarean section with the Misgav Ladach method].
abstract: Between September 1998 and July 1999, 34 patients with twin pregnancy (79.1%) underwent cesarean section with Misgav Ladach method in the Department of Obstetrics and Perinatology of the Medical Academy in Lublin. The aim of this study was to evaluate safety and other advantages of the Misgav Ladach method. Body temperature, usage of antibiotics, analgesics, hematinics, and postoperative complications were evaluated in the postoperative course. No postoperative complications were noted at 32 patients (94.1%). 67.6% of patients did not receive antibiotics. Stitches were removed on the fourth p.o. day at 70.6% of patients. This study highlights the safety of the Misgav Ladach method, and points out some advantages like reduction of postoperative pain, speeded recovery, and no indication for transfusion.
