AbstractThe authors consider the hemorrhagic-infective complications associated with cesarean section. The review comprised 2200 subjects undergoing cesarean section from 1983 to 1987 in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Unit (Director: D. Dargent) of the University of Lyon (France). The incidence of cesarean sections was 14.9%, and endometritis was diagnosed in 17% of cases. The incidence of infective complications was 25% of cases and that of major hemorrhage 1%. The authors conclude that the potential complications must be carefully considered whenever contemplating delivery by cesarean section.
