Objective: Although social vulnerability has been correlated to adverse obstetrical outcomes, its definition as well as its correlation to mode of delivery vary between different studies. The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between maternal social vulnerabilities and cesarean section with the inclusion of a wide range of social vulnerability characteristics.
Study Design: The current study is a retrospective single center cohort study in a tertiary care maternity unit between January 2020 and December 2021.
Background: Complications of surgical clitoral reconstruction for female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) are a rare occurrence, but there has been reports of patients experiencing chronic pain or clitoral burial.
Aim: This study aims to assess which factors are predictive of the occurrence of surgical complications in women who had surgical reconstruction for FGM/C (type 1, 2, or 3).
Methods: This monocentric retrospective study was conducted among patients who underwent clitoral reconstruction after FGM/C from January 2016 to March 2020.
Background: Evaluating social vulnerability is a challenging task. Indeed, former studies demonstrated an association between geographical social deprivation indicators, administrative indicators, and poor pregnancy outcomes.
Objective: To evaluate the association between social vulnerability profiles, prenatal care use (PCU) and poor pregnancy outcomes (Preterm birth (PTB: <37 gestational weeks (GW)), small for gestational age (SGA), stillbirth, medical abortion, and late miscarriage).
