The 982 cases of women with uterine scar after cesarean section were analyzed. Clinical criterion of uterine scar consistency is the “maturity” uterine cervix and greater response of uterine cervix to the delivery preparation. Characteristics of vaginal delivery after cesarean section clinical progress are the following: spontaneous labor onset (95,5 %), abnormal labor (11,9 %), premature rupture of membranes (46,4 %). Induction of labor caused increased the frequency of dystocia by a factor of 2, whereas risk of repeated cesarean section increased 2.3. Frequency of the uterine rupture in these labor cases was 0,73 %.
