Objective:
To evaluate the effects of leaving the visceral peritoneum open and hysterotomy closing by a one-layer continuous locked.
Materials And Methods:
The analysis of 868 women underwent caesarean section had been performed. All operated patients were divided into three compared groups. 268 women operated between 01.05.96 and 31.01.97, belonged into I group, which had the visceral peritoneum sutured during caesarean section, in comparison to the II group operated between 01.05.97-31.01.98 (n = 280), which had only one modification in surgical procedure--the visceral peritoneum was left unsutured and to the group operated between 01.05.98-31.01.99 (n = 320) with second modification--the hysterotomy was closed by a one-layer continuous locked.
Results:
The average operating time was significantly shorter at group II and III. After surgery we have not observed significant differences in frequency of febrile morbidity (6.34% in I group, 8.93% in second group and 8.44% in third group) and postoperative complications (respectively 9.33; 11.07 and 10.63%).
Conclusions:
Non-closure of the visceral peritoneum and closure of the hysterotomy by a one-layer continuous locked has no influence on the number of the post surgical complications. Modifications method of cesarean section showed significantly decreased operative time and chirurgical materials use.
