Résumé (français) : | Cette étude retrace l’utilisation de l’épisiotomie du 18e siècle à nos jours, et explique pourquoi la procédure est aujourd’hui limitée. Les différents types d’épisiotomie sont décrits, et la controverses entourant les séquelles associées à la procédure sont explorées. Les indications modernes de l’épisiotomie, y compris la place de la procédure dans l’accouchement vaginal chirurgical y sont discutés. Bien que le rôle de l’épisiotomie dans l’obstétrique moderne soit peut-être limité, la procédure est importante dans des situations telles que: état du foetus en danger, dystocie de l’épaule et peut être l’accouchement vaginal chirurgical. Le type d’épisiotomie optimal (s’il y en a un), lors des accouchements aux forceps ou a la ventouse est toujours à déterminer. |
Abstract (English) : | This review traces the clinical use of episiotomy from the eighteenth century to the present and explains why the procedure has a restricted function in current practice. The types of episiotomy are described, and the controversies surrounding the sequelae associated with the procedure are explored. The modern indications for episiotomy including the procedure’s place at operative vaginal delivery are discussed. Although the role of the episiotomy in modern obstetrics may be limited, the procedure is important in situations involving nonreassuring fetal status, shoulder dystocia, and perhaps operative vaginal delivery. The optimal type of episiotomy, if any, at forceps or vacuum delivery is yet to be determined. |
