Symphysiotomy.

Symphysiotomy. Trop Doct. 2015 Apr;45(2):60-7 Authors: Armon P Abstract The place of symphysiotomy, as an alternative to Caesarean section (CS), in the management of established obstructed labour in low- and middle-income, resource-poor countries (LMICs), is reviewed. It is suggested that it does have a very definite place, especially in mothers of low age and parity, in circumstances where medical facilities are limited, where antenatal care and hospital delivery are not assured in a future pregnancy, and in cultures where it is important to the woman that a vaginal delivery is achieved.
