An Original Suprapannicular Incision Technique for Cesarean Delivery in the Morbidly Obese Parturient

摘要

BACKGROUND: Obese patients are at an increased risk of cesarean delivery and its associated wound complications. We present an alternative incision technique for obese parturients that avoids making a Pfannenstiel incision under the panniculus while still providing access to the lower uterine segment.
