Background: Extraperitoneal caesarean section (EPCS) provides intraoperative and postoperative advantages to patients compared to transperitoneal (TPCS). Nevertheless, it is less preferred.
Methods: Extraperitoneal caesarean section (EPCS) is a type of caesarean section performed without entering the peritoneal cavity.
Results: In this study, EPCS was successfully performed again in patients who had previously undergone EPCS.
Conclusion: This method, which reduces maternal mortality and health expenditures, can be performed more than once.

Objective: The objective of this study is to systematically evaluate the efficacy of Extraperitoneal Cesarean Section (ECS) compared to Transabdominal Cesarean Section (TCS) in pregnant women, and to assess the differences in treatment outcomes between the two surgical approaches.
Approach And Techniques: We conducted an extensive literature search, pulling up the most recent findings from reputable sources like the Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE, Google Scholar, and Web of Science, all the way up to October 2024. Our meta-analysis comprised seven randomized controlled trials.

The goal of standardizing the technique of the routine, uncomplicated cesarean delivery (CD) is to decrease maternal morbidity while optimizing neonatal outcomes. During the procedure, a family-oriented CD is recommended. The low transverse cesarean skin incision (created with either scalpel or diathermy) is preferred with either the Joel-Cohen or Pfannenstiel methods being acceptable.

Introduction: The main advantage of extraperitoneal cesarean section (EXPCS) is not only less pain, faster recovery, and less potential for infection but also a possible lack of intraperitoneal adhesions.
Methods: In a 3-year period from 2019 to 2022, 88 EXPCSs were performed. A comparison was made with 90 patients who underwent a standard transperitoneal cesarean section (TPCS).
