[Surgical delivery: comparison of two 5-year periods].

Operative delivery prevalence is considered in two periods: 1980-1985 and 1986-1990. Reduced prevalence of repeated cesarean section is reported for the second period as opposed to the first one. A larger prevalence of cesarean sections for anomalous presentation (breech presentation included), fetal distress. EPH gestosis, abruptio placentae is reported in the second half of '80's. Vacuum Extractor applications are reduced in the second period compared to the first one for with concern secondary uterine hypokinesia; larger V.E. applications are reported in the second period for fetal distress in the second stage of labor. Relatively rare forceps applications in both periods.

[Evaluation of indications for cesarean section. Comparison of two decades. Preliminary results].

We have retrospectively analysed the incidence of cesarean section during the periods 1970-79 and 1981-90 and the evolution, if any, of the principal indication over time. The average incidence of cesarean section was 9.01% in the seventies and 11.63% in the eighties: the difference was statistically significant. Four classes of indication show significant differences between the periods considered: previous cesarean, feto-pelvic disproportion, anomalous presentation, gestosis. An evolution of cesarean section indications is shown: minus parity, better health, sanitary and environmental conditions, better physiopathological and clinical knowledge of pregnancy complication and labor seem to be causes of that evolution.
