Resumen
NAPOLES MENDEZ, Danilo y PILOTO PADRON, Mercedes. Current considerations on cesarean section. MEDISAN [online]. 2012, vol.16, n.10, pp. 1579-1595. ISSN 1029-3019.
The increase of cesarean section, that constitutes the most commonly obstetric operation carried out, has been reason of concern in the last years. The aim in this review has been to identify basically the problems generated by this increase, so that it can serve not only as strategy for the analysis and control of that process in the surgical services, but also as work tool for the health managers; the work has also dealt with impact of this surgery type in the maternal morbidity and mortality, reason why it is concluded that this is a surgical procedure that should be reserved in case of a confirmed scientific reason for its realization, for guaranteeing the successful result in the binomial mother-son.
