Summary

Management of impacted fetal head during second stage cesarean requires careful and gentle attention to various surgical steps for delivery of a fetus without adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes, mostly by an experienced surgeon as in such situations, the lower uterine segment may be over-distended and indistinguishable from the vagina. Therefore, the uterine incision may inadvertently be placed too low, or in the vagina.

Also, it may be difficult for the operating surgeon to maneuver his hand below the deeply engaged fetal head, which may be further compounded by the presence of molding and edema on the fetal head (caput succedaneum).

This prospective controlled study was conducted at labor ward of department of obstetrics and gynecology at Ain Shams University Maternity Hospital to compare between the two techniques. A total of 70 pregnant women were enrolled and divided into two equal groups.
