to assess the impact of manual removal of the placenta and intrauterine cleaning during elective cesarean delivery on maternal infectious morbidity and blood loss. This prospective multicenter trial was conducted on 436 pregnant women at term who were intended for elective cesarean delivery and allocated into four groups; group 1 ( n  = 110) who underwent manual removal of the placenta with intrauterine cleaning, group 2 ( n  = 106) who underwent manual removal of the placenta without intrauterine cleaning, group 3 ( n  = 108) who underwent spontaneous placental delivery with intrauterine cleaning and group 4 ( n  = 112) who underwent spontaneous placental delivery without intrauterine cleaning. Maternal operative blood loss, the rate of endometritis and surgical site infections (SSIs) was assessed and recorded. There was no significant difference between the four groups regarding drop of hemoglobin concentration, drop of hematocrit value, re-operation, re-admission to hospital, duration of hospital stay, the rate of endometritis and SSIs as well as maternal acceptability in terms of overall discomfort, overall satisfaction with delivery and recommendation to other women ( p  &gt; .05). Intrauterine cleaning was associated with a significantly shorter duration of discharge of lochia and rapid return to daily activity compared to non-intrauterine cleaning ( p  &lt; .05). Manual removal of the placenta and intrauterine cleaning have no deleterious impact on maternal blood loss and infectious morbidity after elective cesarean section. Also, intrauterine cleaning was associated with faster cessation of lochia and faster return to daily activity.
