Vaginal birth after cesarean delivery in twin gestations: A large, nationwide sample of deliveries

Article Abstract:

A large, nationwide sample of deliveries is investigated to assess the maternal morbidity associated with attempted vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) in twin gestations. Analysis of deliveries for women who had a trial of labor compared to women who underwent an elective cesarean delivery demonstrates a significantly higher rate of uterine rupture in the trial of labor group in twin gestations, similar to the rates reported for trial of labor after cesarean in singleton pregnancies.
