Objective: To compare the fetal outcome of elective cesarean section with elective vaginal birth for Term Breechpresentation in terms of APGAR Score, Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Admission in Neonatology Unit and Neonatal mortality. Design:Quasi experimental study. Setting: Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecololgy Bahawal Victoria Hospital, Bahawalpur. Methods: Total 120cases were included in the study divided into two groups, each having 60 fulfilling the inclusion criteria. Group 'A' had those who deliveredby planned cesarean and Group 'B' comprised those having planned vaginal delivery. Results: It was found that neonatal mortality was3.33 in vaginal and 0 in cesarean group. Mean APGAR Score at 1 and 5 minute was 8.47 and 9.53 in vaginal and 8.58 and 9.62 incesarean group. RDS was more in cesarean (5) than vaginal group (1.6). Admission in Neonatalogy Unit was more in vaginally deliveredgroup (8.33) as compared to the cesarean section group (5). Conclusion: Planned cesarean delivery in breech presentation at term isassociated with a reduction in neonatal mortality and morbidity as compared to the planned vaginal birth.

Placenta accreta refers to an abnormality of placental implantation in which the anchoring placental villi attach to myometrium rather than decidua, resulting in a morbidly adherent placenta . It is a life-threatening diagnosis increasing in number due to the growing number of caesarean sections. For most patients, the method of choice is elective cesarean section followed by hysterectomy. For women who wish to preserve fertility, a conservative procedure may be considered. Almost all reported cases have known major risk factors which are previous caesarean section , current placenta previa , previous uterine surgery and known uterine anomalies .We report here an extremely rare case of recurrent focal placental accreta in 35 years old Saudi female, G3P2+0. 39 weeks pregnant, previous 1 cesarean section, breech with current focal accreta discovered late at 38wk +.Our case doesn’t have known major or even controversial minor risk factors in her 1st accreta.Risk factors for the second accreta were previous focal accreta at fundus and previous 1. In addition this is a successful uterine conservation for the 2nd time with no complications apart from mild bleeding of 2 liters- (the average usual bleeding is 6100 ). known complications for placental accreta include:Severe vaginal bleeding: 53 %, Sepsis: 6%, Secondary hysterectomy: 19% , death: 0.3 % 1 .Cesarean-hysterectomy is the best management of placenta accreta because it has reduced mortality and morbidity as well as injuries to nearby organs and hospital stay. It is important to report this case in order to keep in mind screening for suspicious of placenta accreta during perinatal US even if the patient has no risk factors in order to have planned delivery which will improve the mother and fetal outcome including most importantly decreasing the mortality rate due to postpartum hemorrhage and will increase the likelihood of successful uterine conservation especially in low parity patient.

AbstractObesity is an important issue among fertile women as it may affect obstetric and neonatal outcomes.Obstetric and neonatal outcomes of primiparous women were retrospectively analyzed in non-obese (n=11387) and obese (n=943) women. A subgroup analysis was performed in obese women divided into three groups: Grade I obesity (Group A, n=654), Grade II obesity (Group B, n=192), and Grade III obesity (Group C, n=97). Odds ratios (OR) were expressed with the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI).The incidence of gestational diabetes (non-obese, 1.9%; obese, 7.6%; Group C, 19.6%) and preeclampsia (non-obese, 3.3%; obese, 13.5%; Group C, 17.5%) increased with rising weight. The risk of non-elective cesarean section was significantly higher in obese women than in non-obese women (21.7% vs. 13.2%). The risk of extreme preterm birth (before 28 weeks of gestation) doubled in the Grade I obesity group (OR, 2.1; 95% CI, 1.4–3.2) and nearly tripled in women with body mass index ≥35 kg/mPre-pregnancy obesity is associated with higher incidences of gestational diabetes and preeclampsia. Our study shows that obese women have a higher risk of non-elective cesarean section and preterm birth.

Background. The breech extraction of the fetus through the vagina has a greater risk of hip fracture compared with the extraction by abdominal route.Case. A 2390 g female infant was delivered at 39 weeks by elective cesarean section for breech presentation. The newborn sustained a fracture of the right femur. A simple immobilization of the limb in extension led to a complete healing of the fracture without sequelae.Conclusion. Caesarean delivery reduces the risk of causing a traumatic injury of the newborn compared to vaginal delivery, especially with breech presentation but does not eliminate this possible accidental complication.

AbstrakPada masa sekarang ini telah terjadi perubahan tren dalam persalinan, yaitu berupa peningkatan angka seksio sesarea. Peningkatan ini dipengaruhi berbagai faktor seperti: adanya kekhawatiran akan terjadinya cedera janin, peningkatan permintaan ibu untuk melakukan persalinan seksio sesarea, serta faktor sosioekonomi. Beberapa penelitian justru menunjukkan seksio sesarea dapat menimbulkan morbiditas pada bayi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah membandingkan kondisi bayi antara persalinan normal dan seksio sesarea elektif dilihat dari nilai Apgar Penelitian dilaksanakan dari Mei 2014 sampai Januari 2014 di bagian rekam medis RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang.. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah analitik dengan desain cross-sectional study. Sampel dalam penelitian ini terdiri dari 179  pasien dengan persalinan normal dan 56 pasien dengan seksio sesarea. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada menit pertama nilai Apgar 4-6 adalah 3,4% pada persalinan normal. Nilai Apgar 7-10 sebanyak 96,6% pada persalinan normal dan 100% pada seksio sesarea pada menit pertama. Pada menit kelima, nilai Apgar 4-6 adalah 1,1% pada persalinan normal, sedangkan nilai Apgar 7-10 sebanyak 98,9% pada persalinan normal dan 100% pada seksio sesarea pada menit kelima. Setelah dilakukan analisis dengan mann-whitney test didapatkan bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan nilai Apgar pada menit-1 (p=0,777) dan menit-5 (p=0,887) antara persalinan normal dengan seksio sesarea.Kata kunci: persalinan normal, seksio sesarea elektif, nilai Apgar AbstractIn recent years, cesarean section have increased. Several factor are contributing, such as fears of injury to the fetus, increased women's request to do a cesarean section deliveries and socioeconomic factors. Some studies have also shown that cesarean section can lead to morbidity in infants. The objective of this study was to compare between Apgar scores of infant born by elective cesarean section and normal vaginal deliveries. The research was done from May 2013 to January 2014 at the medical records department of general hospital center Dr. M. Djamil Padang. This was an analytic study with cross-sectional study design. This study used 179 samples with normal vaginal delivery and 56 samples with cesarean section. The result showed that 1st minute Apgar score of 4-6 in normal vaginal delivery was 3.4%, and Apgar score 7-10 was 96.6% in normal vaginal delivery while in cesarean section was 100%. The 5th minute Apgar score of  4-6 in normal vaginal delivery was 1.1%, and Apgar score 7-10 was 98.9% in normal vaginal delivery while in cesarean section was 100%. After being analyzed using Mann-Whitney test, the study showed that there was no significant different in Apgar score of neonates born through normal vaginal delivery and neonates born trough cesarean section at first minute (p=0.777) and fifth minute (p=0.887).Keywords: normal vaginal delivery, elective cesarean section, Apgar score

Introduction: Spinal anesthesia is considered a reasonable choice for cesarean section. Bupivacaine and ropivacaine have been used as intrathecal drugs alone or in combination with various opioids. Ropivacaine is considered a valid and safe alternative to bupivacaine for spinal anesthesia. Objectives: To compare the efficacy and safety of hyperbaric ropivacaine with hyperbaric bupivacaine in spinal anesthesia for elective cesarean section. Methodology: Sixty pregnant women undergoing elective cesarean section were allocated into two groups. Group R received 3 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric ropivacaine (2 ml 0.75% plain ropivacaine mixed with 1 ml of 25 %dextrose) and Group B received 2.5 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine. Both the groups were compared in terms of onset of sensory and motor block, regression of sensory and motor block, duration of analgesia and side effects. Results: The onset of sensory block was comparable in both groups but was statistically insignificant. The onset of motor block in Bupivacaine(7.53 ± 1.72) min was faster when compared to Ropivacaine group(14.33 ± 6.19) min. Regression of sensory and motor block both were faster in Ropivacaine group. Duration of analgesia was longer in Bupivacaine group(131.17 ± 32.95)min than Ropivacaine group(125.33 ± 30.54)min. Conclusion: Ropivacaine can be used as an alternative to Bupivacaine for spinal anesthesia in cesarean section but has a shorter duration of sensory and motor block.

Introduction: The complications of cesarean section are seen more commonly in emergency than in elective cases. The aim of this study was to find out the incidence of cesarean section in Nepal Medical College Teaching Hospital and to compare the maternal and fetal outcome in elective and emergency cesarean section. Methods: A prospective study of all the cases undergoing cesarean section in Nepal Medical College Teaching Hospital was carried out during the period of six months from Asar 2069 to Mangsir 2069. Results: The incidence of cesarean section was 254 (22.30%) out of which emergency cesarean section accounted for 167 (65.7%) and elective cesarean section for 87 (34.3%). The usual indications of emergency cesarean section were fetal distress, previous cesarean section in labour, non progress of labour and prolonged second stage of labour. The usual indications of elective cesarean section were previous cesarean section, breech, cephalopelvic disproportion and cesarean section on demand. There was found to be no significant difference in age, period of gestation, blood loss and blood transfusion in emergency vs. elective cesarean section. There was significant difference seen in the length of hospital stay, fever, urinary tract infection, wound infection and low APGAR in five minutes indicating that these were more common in emergency cesarean section. Significant difference was also seen in the incidence of postpartum haemorrhage indicating that it was seen more in elective cesarean section. Conclusions: The incidence of cesarean section in Nepal Medical College Teaching Hospital is high and the overall complication rate is higher in emergency cesarean section than in elective cesarean section.Keywords: cesarean section; fetal and maternal outcome.
