METHOD OF CESAREAN SECTION Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: gynecology. SUBSTANCE: after completion of laparotomy in lower uterine segment, uterine own fascia is dissected in zone of anticipated incision for a value corresponding to fetus head. Length of initial incision of uterine wall is coordinated with thickness of lower segment in zone of incision, and length of repeated incisions is reduced as incision deepens. Incision is brought apart up to inner surface of uterine ribs, and fetus head is withdrawn at the height of uterine contraction induced by intravenous injection of oxytocin. Then, uterine walls are sutured by single-row separate interrupted sutures, and ligature sutures are formed along one side of incision and borders of uterine own fascia are connected by continuous suture. EFFECT: reduced postoperative complications in mother and fetus. 4 dwg
