	Cesarian Section -- A Brief History, part 1
		Cesarean section has been part of human culture since ancient times and there are tales in both Western and non-Western cultures of this procedure resulting in live mothers and offspring.
		Yet, the early history of cesarean section remains shrouded in myth and is of dubious accuracy.
		Cesarean section performed on a living woman by a female practitioner.

	CESARIAN FACT SHEET: Breastfeeding, childbirth, and pregnancy online magazine: The Compleat Mother
		A cesarean section poses documented medical risks to the mother's health, including infections, hemorrhage, transfusion, injury to other organs, anesthesia complications, psychological complications, and a maternal mortality two to four times greater than that for a vaginal birth.
		An elective cesarean section increases the risk to the infant of premature birth and respiratory distress syndrome, both of which are associated with multiple complications, intensive care and burdensome financial costs.
		Cesarean sections are sometimes performed for other than maternal or fetal well-being, such as avoidance of patient pain, patient or provider convenience, provider legal concerns or provider financial incentives.

	Cesarean Section Information on Healthline
		A cesarean section is a surgical procedure in which incisions are made through a woman's abdomen and uterus to deliver her baby.
		Cesarean sections, also called c-sections or cesarean deliveries, are performed whenever abnormal conditions complicate labor and vaginal delivery, threatening the life or health of the mother or the baby.
		The most common reason that a cesarean section is performed (in 35% of all cases, according to the United States Public Health Service) is the woman has had a previous c-section.

	Caesarean section - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A caesarean section (cesarean section AE), or c-section, is a form of childbirth in which a surgical incision is made through a mother's abdomen (laparotomy) and uterus (hysterotomy) to deliver one or more babies.
		In current practice, general anaesthesia for caesarean section is becoming less common as scientific research has now clearly established the benefits of regional anaesthesia for both the mother and baby.
		Caesarian section sacrificed the mother for the sake of the child; the first recorded incidence of a woman surviving a caesarean section was in 1500, in Siegershausen, Switzerland: Jacob Nufer, a pig gelder, is supposed to have performed the operation on his wife after a prolonged labour.

	Cesarean Section
		A cesarean section, or C-section, is the surgical delivery of an infant through an incision in the mother's abdomen and uterus.
		Many cesareans are quickly performed when the fetus or mother is showing signs of distress or when labor complications develop, such as umbilical cord problems or placenta problems like placenta abruptio.
		Examples of such known problems are a fetus in bottom-down breech position, a placenta that is blocking the cervix (placenta previa), a mother's chronic illness, preeclampsia, and in some cases, factors linked to a past cesarean delivery.

	Cesarean Section
		Cesarean section refers to a major surgical procedure where a baby is removed from the uterus by making a cut into the abdomen, then into the uterus.
		Education is the key to understanding this common and interesting surgical procedure, which should help women and their partners decide if this form of childbirth is appropriate for them.
		Nobody is really sure where the term "cesarean section" came from, but we are fairly certain that Julius Caesar was not born by C-section.

	Cesarean Section
		Nobody is really sure where the term “cesarean section” came from, but we are fairly certain that Julius Caesar was not born by c/section.
		In the past, almost every woman who underwent a c/section died, and in many cases it was performed to save the baby, at the expense of the mother’s life.
		We do have written reports of c/sections being performed in the late 1500s, but survival of the mother and baby was not really feasible until the late 1700s and early 1800s.
