Cesarean Section and Associated Surgeries: Feasibility and Surgical Outcomes
Journal Title: Women's Health – Open Journal - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Cesarean section being the most commonly performed surgery in Egypt, the incidents of cesarean delivery in general hospitals were found to be nearly 50.6%, whereas, in private hospitals such cases were reported to be much higher. Many disorders, either gynecological or non-gynecological could coexist or precede a cesarean delivery. These disorders need to be managed surgically; invariably most patients will prefer to undergo a cesarean section with concomitant surgery for any associated pathology. The feasibility and complications of such dual surgeries have been addressed in this review article.
