All women were followed till delivery & further divided into 2 groups according to mode of delivery. Results: It was found that as the thickness of LUS was more (2.5 mm or more), chances of vaginal delivery following trial of labour was high. Conclusion: Antenatal ultrasonographic assessment specially 3D with trans vaginal probe can give fair idea of scar strength and more number of successful trial of labour is women with previous caesarean section.
