[Once cesarean section--always cesarean section?].

Between 1975 and 1985 from 522 patients, who had undergone caesarean section during their previous delivery or deliveries, per cent 63 have been delivered vaginally and 37 per cent with a caesarean section (52.8% primary, 47.2% secondary). The rate of spontaneous labour was higher, if patient had a spontaneous delivery before caesarean section or the first caesarean section has been performed because of a placenta praevia, a breech presentation or a fetal distress syndrome. Cephalopelvic disproportion went on in 67.2 per cent with a caesarean section. Rupture of the scare occurred in 2.9 per cent. Expectative management of delivery is justified following previous caesarean section. Oxytocin infusions are possible in cases if internal tocography will be done.
