The abdomen was entered by excision into the old Pfannenstiel scar and a low cervical transverse cesarean section performed. A viable 8 pound 8 ounce male infant was delivered demonstrating Apgars of 8 at 1 minute and 9 at 5 minutes when evaluated by the attending nursing personnel. The placenta and membranes were removed and the endometrium bluntly curetted with the surgeons fingers and covered with a moist lap. The endometrium was then closed with cutaneous 0 Vicryl. The myometrium was imbricated using 0 Vicryl and vertical Limberg suture technique with good hemostasis. The serosa was then closed with continuous 2-0 Vicryl and all free blood and clot removed from the pelvic cavity bilaterally. The anterior peritoneum was closed with cutaneous 2-0 Vicryl. The fascial remnants in the midline were approximated with interrupted 0 Vicryl and the fascia itself was closed with continuous 0 Vicryl using 2 sutures overlapped in the midline. The subcutaneous dead space was closed in multiple layers of 3-0 Vicryl and 4-0 Vicryl subcuticular was used to approximate the skin edges. Steri-Strips and a sterile dressing applied. The procedure was terminated. The patient tolerated this procedure well and was transferred to the recovery room awake and in satisfactory condition.
