    Area of Science:

    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Reproductive Medicine

    Background:

    • The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends allowing vaginal birth after one previous cesarean section.
    • Previous studies have focused on women with one prior cesarean section.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To update the experience of allowing labor in women with two or more prior cesarean sections.
    • To evaluate the safety and outcomes of trial of labor in this patient population.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 57 women with two or more cesarean sections who underwent a trial of labor.
    • Analysis of maternal and neonatal outcomes.

    Main Results:

    • Vaginal delivery was successful in a significant proportion of women.

  • Key maternal and neonatal outcomes were assessed, with specific data points to be detailed in the full study.

    • Conclusions:

    • Trial of labor is a viable option for carefully selected women with multiple prior cesarean sections.
    • Further research may refine patient selection criteria and optimize outcomes for vaginal birth after multiple cesareans.
