[Critical assessment of clinical pelvimetry in the estimation of mechanical dystocia].
The authors followed 82 cesarean sections done for negative labor trial during one year in the Maternity "Elena Doamna" Iaşi. Each case was assessed after age, obstetrical history, labor trial, presentation, weight and Apgar score of the new born. Internal or external pelvimetry had sometimes advantages but also restrictions because many etiologies of mechanical dystocia of the labor disappeared. Therefore even now with normal clinical pelvimetry and normal fetuses a labor trial can be negative.
