Cesarean Section Surgery

 

With this procedure, 8 layers of tissue are cut, starting from the abdominal skin, and the baby is reached.

The baby is reached by cutting the lower part of the uterus, and the doctor takes the baby out, usually by grasping the baby's head with his hand.

After the baby is removed, the layers of the abdomen are brought together one by one and stitched together, and the abdomen is closed.

Since cesarean section is an abdominal surgery, intra-abdominal organs may stick together after the procedure.

In addition, since the uterine wall is cut during the cesarean section, the risk of rupture in the uterine wall and penetration of the baby's partner into the uterine wall increases in subsequent pregnancies.

Reasons for Caesarean Section Surgery

Face, forehead, arm, side, foot, shoulder, breech presentation may be a reason for cesarean section surgery.) The baby's desired and expected entrance into the birth canal not progressing properly or stopping its progress

• The baby's umbilical cord protruding out of the birth canal before birth. The presence of some infections in the birth canal that may put the baby's life at risk.

• Having had a previous cesarean section or uterine surgery

• The mother's hip structure is not suitable for birth

• Baby's distress in the womb and risk of death

• The baby's partner blocks the birth canal or leaves the place where he/she clings before the baby is born.
