Le résumé fourni par la source

Cesarean section is invasive procedure that performed in the women abdomen and uterus when vaginal delivery poses risk to the mother and fetus. There are different types of cesarean section based on timing and incision site or section and position. While cesarean sections can be lifesaving for both mothers and babies, they are not without their risks and consequences. Cesarean sections are performed for two main reasons: to save the life of the mother or fetus in urgent situations, and electively for non-emergency reasons. Each type of cesarean section has its own set of short-term and long-term consequences. The effect is broadly classified as maternal and neonatal/infant related. Despite those risks, the rate cesarean section increased steadily due to the advanced health care system, technology, and maternal requests. It is crucial for women and healthcare professionals to be well-informed about the potential short- and long-term consequences of cesarean sections. While this procedure can be a valuable tool for safe childbirth, it is essential to carefully weigh the risks and benefits before deciding on this route of delivery.
