Caesarean section (CS) is the most commonly performed surgical operation in the world. Since its introduction in obstetric practice, caesarean section rates have continuously increased in both developed and developing countries. A substantial proportion of this increment was due to unnecessary operations attributable to nonevidencebased indications, professional convenience, maternal request, and overmedicalisation of childbirth. The review examines current data on operative abdominal delivery in the world.
