Trial of labor versus elective cesarean delivery for patients with two prior cesarean-sections: A retrospective propensity score analysis

Résumé

Introduction: Despite awareness of obstetricians to the constant increase in the number of cesarean sections in recent years, the fear of a uterine scar rupture is still present and influences the choice of the mode of delivery in patients with two previous cesarean sections. However, several clinical studies have suggested that, under certain conditions, vaginal birth after two cesarean sections is usually successful and safe. Objective: The objective of this study was to compare maternal and neonatal issues according to the planned mode of delivery in patients with two previous cesarean sections. Methods: It was a retrospective observational comparative study at Rennes University Hospital between January 1, 2013, and December 31, 2020. We performed a propensity score for the comparison of neonatal outcomes: cord pH, cord lactates, Apgar scores, transfer to neonatal unit and deaths, according to the planned delivery mode. Secondary outcomes were maternal issues: uterine rupture, post-partum hemorrhage, deaths. Results: A total of 410 patients with two previous cesarean section were eligible for our study. Prophylactic cesarean was performed in 358 cases (87.3%). Trial of labor was attempted in the 52 remaining patients (12.7%), 67.3 % of whom were successful. Neonatal weight, APGAR score at 1–5–10 min, and pH on cord blood were comparable in both groups. One case of uterine rupture occurred in the trial of labor group. Conclusion: Trial of labor seems to be a reasonable option for women with two previous cesarean sections in a selected population.
