Risk of Cesarean scar defect following single‐ vs double‐layer uterine closure: systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials

Single- and double-layer closure of the uterine incision following Cesarean delivery are associated with a similar incidence of Cesarean scar defects, as well as uterine dehiscence and rupture in a subsequent pregnancy. However, the quality level of summary estimates, as assessed by GRADE, was low, indicating that the true effect may be, or is even likely to be, substantially different from the estimate of the effect.
