Objective: The aim of the study was to compare general postnatal condition of preterm infants delivered by caesarean section or born vaginally.
Material And Methods: The study group consisted of 605 premature newborns delivered in Obstetrics and Gynaecology Clinic of Medical University of Warsaw in 1995-2000. The newborns were divided into two groups. There were 280 prematures delivered by caesarean section in the first group and 325 ones were born vaginally in the second group.
Results: The first day mortality rate in infants born vaginally was 6.8% comparing with 2.8% in ones delivered by caesarean section.
Conclusions: In the study group the percentage of neonatal severe condition was similar in both groups but mortality rate in the first day of life was slightly higher in infants born vaginally.

Management of second-trimester placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is currently center-dependent with minimal evidence-based practices. This study aims to analyze outcomes of hysterectomy as second-trimester active management (AM) versus cesarean hysterectomy as expectant management (EM) in cases of PAS with intraoperative and postoperative outcomes. This study is a retrospective case-control study of patients with a pathology-confirmed diagnosis of PAS managed at a single center over 16 years (2005-2020).
