Many studies concerning the various aspects of cesarean section have recently appeared in the literature. The important issues are the changing indications for the operation and the different management protocols in trial of labor following a previous cesarean section. As the different authors use different ways of presenting their results, comparison of these studies is a complex matter and the conclusions are sometimes misleading. It is proposed that the data presented should be more uniformly used, according to the principles presented in this study.
