Introduction The incidence of cesarean section has been rising in the past 50 years. With the increased number of cesarean sections, the number of pregnancies with the previous cesarean section rises as well. The aim of this study was to establish the influence of the previous cesarean section on the development of placental complications: placenta previa, placental abruption and placenta accreta, as well as to determine the influence of the number of previous cesarean sections on the complication development. Material and methods The research was conducted at the Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics in Nis covering 10-year-period (from 1995. to 2005.) with 32358 deliveries, 1280 deliveries after a previous cesarean section, 131 cases of placenta previa and 118 cases of placental abruption. The experimental groups was presented by the cases of placenta previa or placental abruption with prior cesarean section in obstetrics history, opposite to the control group having the same conditions but without a cesarean section in medical history. RESULTS The incidence of placenta previa in the control group was 0.33%, opposite to the 1.86% incidence after one cesarean section (p<0.001), 5.49% after two cesarean sections and as high as 14.28% after three cesarean sections in obstetric history. Placental abruption was recorded as placental complication in 0.33% pregnancies in the control group, while its incidence was 1.02% after one cesarean section (p<0.001) and 2.02% in the group with two previous cesarean sections. The difference in the incidence of intrapartal hysterectomy between the group with prior cesarean section (0.86%) and without it (0.006%) shows a high statistical significance (p<0.001). CONCLUSION The previous cesarean section is an important risk factor for the development of placental complications.

ABSTRACT In modern obstetric practice, pregnancy with history of previous cesarean section is quite common. A cesarean section poses some documented risks to the mother's health in subsequent pregnancies like placenta previa or accreta and uterine scar rupture. It is also associated with increased likelihood of preterm delivery, low birth weight, and perinatal death. Repeat cesarean section is technically difficult and there is chance of injury to surrounding structures. The retrospective study was done in Yenepoya Medical College Hospital during the period of January 2014 to January 2015 to find out the maternal antepartum and intrapartum complications as well as perinatal outcome in patients with a history of cesarean section. A total number of 143 pregnant patients with history of one or more cesarean section who underwent repeat cesarean sections were included. Previous classical cesarean, extreme prematurity, and those who opted for vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) were excluded. Mean age of the study population was 27.4 years. Here, 72.12 and 20.98% cases had history of previous one and two cesarean sections respectively. Important antepartum complications were placenta previa (3.50%), scar tenderness (8.39%), gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM; 4.90%), pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH; 6.99%), etc. There were extensive peritoneal and bladder adhesions in 13.99 and 16.78% cases respectively, causing much preoperative difficulties and in one case urinary bladder was injured during operation. Postoperative period was uneventful in 72.72% cases. In this study, 20.28% neonates developed some complications like prematurity, low birth weight, birth asphyxia, and neonatal jaundice. Here the rate of perinatal mortality was 1.4%. How to cite this article DSouza RJ, Narayani BH, Rao SB. Outcome of Pregnancy with History of Previous Cesarean Section.

Background: Previous Cesarean section (CS) is one of the important causes of CS in subsequent pregnancies. Moreover, repeated cesarean sections increase maternal as well as perinatal morbidity and mortality. We conducted this study to find out outcome of pregnancies in women who had a history of previous CS.Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients of previous caesarean section for either maternal or fetal indications. The duration of study was 3 years. Total 215 patients were included in this study on the basis of a predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The indications, maternal and neonatal outcome were studied from medical records of the patients. Statistical analysis was done using SSPE 22.0 software.Results: Out of 215 studied cases majority of the patients belonged to age group of 21-30 years (75.35%) and were 2nd gravida (61.86%). 164 (76.28%) patients attended ANC OPD at least for 3 times during pregnancy. 73 (33.95%) patients had Hb of less than 10 gms while blood transfusion was required to be given in 11 (5.12%) patients. cesarean section was required in 172 (80%) patients out of which 166 (77.21%) patients had undergone emergency LSCS while in 6 (2.79%) patients elective LSCS was done. Scar tenderness was the most common indication for repeat cesarean section. There was no maternal mortality in any patients while there was 1 still birth and 1 neonatal death.Conclusions: Previous cesarean section is one of the important causes of CS in subsequent pregnancies hence decision of doing CS, especially primigravida, must be taken in accordance with strict guidelines and the practice of “cesarean section on demand” should be discouraged.

Objective: To analyze trends of CSs and evaluating them according to Robson’s Ten Groups Classification System (TGCS) at a leading government tertiary care hospital of South Punjab, Pakistan. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Nishtar Medical University Hospital, Multan Pakistan, from October 2019 to March 2020.The study population included a total of 167 women who underwent CS in the hospital during the specified study period. For each case, we collected data regarding maternal characteristics and pregnancy-related information. The dependent variable was Robson classification group. Results: Overall, mean age was 26.53+5.1 years. Majority of the women, 116 (69.5%) belonged to urban areas of residence, 74 (44.3%) gestational aged between 37-42 years while 108 (64.7%) had history of cesarean section. Most of the patients, 85 (50.9%) turned out to be from TGCS Group-10. Group-5 and Group-1 were the 2nd and 3rd most common group, accounted for 24 (14.4%) and 19 (11.4%) cases respectively. Previous cesarean section (20.4%) and fetal distress (19.8%) were found to be most common indications leading to cesarean section. Conclusion: As per Robson’s Ten-Group Classification, Group-10 and Group-5 were found to be the most contributing among deliveries done. Previous cesarean section and fetal distress were the most common indications of cesarean section. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.37.2.3823 How to cite this:Parveen R, Khakwani M, Naz A, Bhatti R.

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the safety and integrity of scar at repeat cesarean section, in patients with previous one cesarean section performed at different settings. Study design A reterospective study in a tertiary care obstetric unit over a period of one year (2006). Material and methods All patients with previous one cesarean section, undergoing emergency and elective cesarean sections were enrolled at our institution. The variables noted were age, parity, residential area, location of previous cesarean section and associated complaints, e.g uterine contractions, vaginal leaking/ bleeding and comorbid medical disorders. Outcome measures Operative findings in terms of thinning of scar, dehiscence or rupture were recorded. The effects of skill level of surgeon and set-up of previous cesarean section were analyzed. Results Two hundred and seventy cesarean sections were performed for different indications in patients with previous one cesarean section over a period of one year. Out of all patients, extreme thinning of scar was noted in 36 (13.3%) patients. Seven patients(2.6%) had scar dehiscence. Only 3 (42.8%) patients with scar dehiscence had associated complaint of scar tenderness, while 22 (61%)of 36 cases of scar thinning were having scar tenderness. All 7 cases of scar dehiscence had their previous cesarean sections at teaching hospitals. No patient underwent hysterectomy and all patients with scar dehiscence had successful repair. Conclusion The study concludes relatively inadequate scar thickness rate but at the same time relatively acceptable scar dehiscence rate. Thus it will still be safe to subject the patients to trial of labor after meticulous scrutinization and individualization. At the same time adequate surgical training of doctors (trainees and community doctors) through different formats is recommended.

Background: The objective of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of induction of labor in women attempting trial of labor after cesarean delivery and to compare maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality in women who were induced to those delivering spontaneously.Methods: The prospective study was carried out in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in collaboration with the Neonatal Section, Department of Pediatrics at J.N. Medical College and Hospital, AMU Aligarh. The sample included 280 women with one previous cesarean section, of whom 130 women underwent induction of labor (study group) and 150 were admitted with spontaneous onset of labor. Prostaglandin gel and intracervical Foley’s were used for cervical ripening in the study group. Indication of cesarean section, mode of delivery, maternal and neonatal outcome were studied in between groups.Results: Overall rate of vaginal delivery after cesarean section was 45.3% and 56% in both study and control group respectively. The rate of cesarean section were higher in women who were induced and having unfavorable cervix. Maternal and neonatal morbidity were not significantly higher as compared in both groups, however one case of scar rupture was found in study group.Conclusions: Induction of labor in women with previous cesarean section had higher rates of cesarean section however it does not adversely affect neonatal and maternal morbidity. Overall vaginal birth is safe and effective in women with previous cesarean section by prostaglandin gel or intracervical Foley’s. Authors cautiously suggest, induction of labor should be considered in preselected patient with strict monitoring.
