Aims & Objective: To find out the rate of vaginal delivery after one caesarean section Study Design: Non-interventional, descriptive study Study Setting: Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Allama Iqbal Medical College and Jinnah Hospital, Lahore. Materials and Methods: A trial of vaginal delivery was carried out on 100 patients with previous one caesarean section. Selection criteria were subjects with normal pregnancy, adequate maternal pelvic dimensions vertex presentation and spontaneous onset of labour with previous one uncomplicated LSCS. Patients with classical caesarean section, medical complications, multiple pregnancy, IUGR, placenta previa and extensive myomectomy were excluded from the study. Informed consent was taken from all patients; trail of scar was given with vigilance. Maternal and fetal monitoring was carried out with facility of operation theatre, anaesthesia and paediatrician. Results: Majority of patients was between 20-24 years of age. 58% of the patients were primipara. Successful vaginal delivery was achieved in 72% and rate of repeat section was 28%. Leading indications for repeat section were failure to progress, (50%), fetal distress (28.5%) and scar tenderness (21.43%). No maternal & fetal mortality occurred. Conclusion: Trial of scar after one LSCS should be encouraged with vigilant monitoring provided no obstetric contraindication exists.
Aims & Objectives: To review the efficacy of Sacrocolpopexy in the management of vaginal vault prolapse Study Design: Interventional study. Setting & Population: Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Jinnah Hospital, Lahore. Women with vaginal vault prolapse after hysterectomy. Methods and Main-outcome measures: Abdominal Sacrocolpopexy using proline mesh. Follow-up in these patients were carried out at one week, four weeks, six months, and one year. Results: Sacrocolpopexy was carried out in ten patients for vaginal vault prolapse after vaginal (6) and abdominal hysterectomy (4). The mean age was 49.8 years. Parity was between P3 - P6 (Mean parity 4.3). Mean operation time was 79.3 minutes. Estimated blood loss was less than 200m1. No intra-operative or post-operative complications occurred in any case. Conclusion: Abdominal sacrocolpopexy is effective and safe in the treatment of vaginal vault prolapse. This procedure has high success rate in correcting prolapse without a time dependent decrease in efficacy.
