Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Cesarean deliveries have been practiced since the 19th century, and are among the most performed surgeries worldwide.

Due to the low-rate complication, the frequency of cesarean deliveries is increasing. Nevertheless, becoming skilled in preforming this operation and managing intraoperative issues is a basic skill required from resident and senior obstetricians.

The techniques for preforming cesarean deliveries evolved over time, but there are still unsolved questions relating to avoiding bladder injury, uterine closing with single- or double-layer suturing, the method of suturing to close the fascia, yield in subcutis approximation, etc.

Moreover, the difference between the first and second surgeries, adhesion formation and post-operative complications, together with an increased risk of abnormal placentation and increasing rate of placental accreta syndrome (PAS) are major challenges as the number and percentage of surgery increases.

As we cannot avoid changes in lifestyle and weight gain among the general population, as well as the postponing of the first pregnancy, the question as to whether vaginal labor or direct cesarean deliveries should be offered arises.

In this Special Issue, we aimed to highlight the best and safest approaches to cesarean deliveries within the context of the current lifestyle changes and population needs, along with established and novel consideration to take into account for the pre- and post-operative period.
