Abstract (English)  :

Population based longitudinal study of 6138 women in Nova Scotia with hx of PCS and delivered another child. The relevant issue is not risks of successful vaginal birth after CS but the risks of TOL. A total of 3249 underwent TOL and 2889 had an elective CS (of the TOL group, 1030 had a previous vaginal delivery, either before or after PCS). There were no maternal deaths. The overall rate of maternal morbidity was 8.1% (1.3% major-hysterectomy, UR or operative injury, 6.9% minor-fever, blood transfusion or abdominal-wound infection). The overall rate did not differ sig., major complications were nearly twice as likely among women undergoing a TOL. Conc.-among preg. women with PCS, major maternal complication are twice as likely among those whose deliveries are managed with a TOL as among those who have elective CS.
