Summary

Cesarean section is one of the oldest surgical interventions in the history of medicine.Many variations in cesarean section technique have been studied.The investigatory team are aiming to decrease blood loss during cesarean section by vertical splitting versus transverse cutting of muscle layer in lower segment cesarean sections to avoid uterine vessels injury.

Conditions

  • Cesarean Section Complications

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Transverse cutting

Transverse cutting and/or pulling.of lower uterine segment during lower cesarean section extending the uterine incision laterally.

PROCEDURE

vertical splitting

vertical splitting of lower uterine segment during lower cesarean section making the direction of traction up and downward instead of being laterally and we suppose that this will allow the tissues to split along their natural arrangement, decreasing the probability of extension of the wound into the uterine vessels, thus; decreasing blood loss; operative time and maternal recovery.
