Objective: To estimate the safety of vaginal delivery in pregnant women at term in spontaneous labor with previous cesarean section who attended the Obstetric Emergency Service of the Dr. Jesús María Casal Ramos University Hospital, in the period January-June 2018. Methods: A prospective, descriptive, cross-sectional and non-causal correlational study was conducted in pregnant women at term with a previous caesarean section in labour. The medical records of full-term pregnant women who entered into spontaneous labor and who underwent conduction of labor were reviewed if the indication for cesarean section did not persist, recording maternal, fetal and neonatal complications. Results: We attended 245 pregnant women, with previous cesarean section, 108 patients were included of which 99 (92 %) did not present complications and of the remaining nine, 4 (44 %) presented grade I tear, 4 (44 %) grade II tear and only 1 (12 %) grade III tear. The most frequent anatomical location was vaginal in 6 (67 %), cervical in 3 (33 %); the size of the same was not described; the grade III vaginal tear was sutured, did not require blood transfusion and the product weighed 4000 kg. There were no maternal deaths or fetal complications or fetal deaths. Conclusions: Spontaneously initiated vaginal delivery in pregnant women with previous caesarean section is 92% safe.
