Objective: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effects of the increased number of caesarean deliveries (CDs) in cases of multiple repeat caesarean deliveries (MRCDs) on maternal and neonatal morbidity.
Methods: MRCDs admitted to our hospital between January 2013 and September 2014 were analysed retrospectively. A total number of 1133 women were included in the study and were divided into 4 groups. Group 1: second CDs (n = 329); Group 2: third CDs (n = 225); Group 3: fourth CDs (n = 447); Group 4: fifth CDs (n = 132). The clinical, demographic, intraoperative and postoperative data of the patients were registered upon the review of patient files.
Results: The differences among the groups were found to be statistically significant in terms of mean maternal age, gravida, APGAR (Activity, Pulse, Grimace, Appearance, Respiration) scores, hospital stay and operation time. In addition, the difference was also statistically significant for severe adhesion, bladder injury and premature birth. No statistically significant difference was observed among the groups with respect to placenta previa, placenta accreta, caesarean hysterectomy, uterine scar rupture.
Conclusions: According to our findings, MRCDs seem to increasing the maternal and neonatal morbidity even though they are not life-threatening.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is rare during pregnancy and current data on the impact of AF during delivery is scarce. In this study, we aim to analyze the impact of AF in patients who underwent delivery via cesarean section (CS), natural spontaneous delivery (NSD), or instrumental delivery (ID).
Methods: This study analyzed discharge data from the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) from 2016 to 2020.

Background: We hypothesized that patients who received a lower dose of intrathecal morphine (ITM) would have higher postoperative opioid consumption following cesarean delivery.
Methods: Patients who had cesarean deliveries from February 15, 2022, through February 14, 2024 at Baylor Scott & White Medical Center - Temple with single injection spinal or combined spinal epidural anesthesia who did not have labor epidural anesthesia were included. Morphine milligram equivalent (MME) opioid consumption in the first 24 postoperative hours was recorded along with patient demographic, physical, and clinical characteristics.

Objectives: Planning the mode of delivery of a full-term breech singleton remains a challenging task. The aim of this work is to compare the neonatal and maternal short-term outcomes after planned vaginal delivery and caesarean section and to evaluate the influence of an MRI pelvimetry on the short-term outcomes in order to provide appropriate advice to pregnant women with breech presentation.
Methods: This is a retrospective monocentric analysis of all deliveries with singleton pregnancies from breech presentation >36 + 0 weeks of gestation between 08/2021 and 09/2023.

The intrauterine device (IUD) is an important and highly effective means of contraception. Migration of the IUD, post implantation, out of the uterus is an infrequent complication, and its subsequent migration into the urinary bladder with formation of secondary bladder calculi, is even more infrequently reported. The authors report a 51 year old woman who had had her last child delivered via cesarean section 16 years ago.

Background: Neuraxial anesthesia is the gold standard for cesarean sections, but general anesthesia is sometimes necessary, especially in emergency cases. Anaphylactic shock due to succinylcholine, a commonly used neuromuscular blocking agent, is rare but life-threatening.
Case Presentation: A 42-year-old woman with severe preeclampsia and a history of intracranial vascular malformations underwent an emergency cesarean section.
