Does the Misgav Ladach method for cesarean section improve operative and recovery times without increasing morbidity in patients undergoing cesarean section?
The Misgav Ladach method for cesarean section appears efficient and safe, promoting faster recovery and early ambulation.
Caution against routine Misgav Ladach adoption; case report leaves open randomized confirmation of benefits.
OBJECTIVE: To stress the advantages of the Misgav Ladach method for cesarean section. STUDY DESIGN: In this study operative details and the postoperative course of 139 patients who underwent cesarean section according to the Misgav Ladach method in 1995-96 are presented. RESULTS: The Misgav Ladach method reduces operation time, time of child delivery, and time of recovery. The rates of febrile morbidity, wound infection and wound dehiscence are not affected by the new technique. CONCLUSION: Our study highlights the efficiency and safety of the Misgav Ladach method, and points out the speeded recovery, with early ambulation and resumption of drinking and eating, that makes the cesarean section delivery closer and closer to natural childbirth.
