Cesarean Section (C-section)

  • Surgical Delivery: Cesarean section, commonly referred to as C-section, involves the delivery of the baby through a surgical incision made in the mother’s abdomen and uterus. C-section may be planned (elective) or performed as an emergency procedure in response to complications during labor or concerns about maternal or fetal well-being.
  • Indications for C-section: Common indications for cesarean delivery include fetal distress, failure to progress in labor, breech presentation, placental abnormalities, maternal health conditions, or previous cesarean delivery. Our obstetric team carefully evaluates each case to determine the most appropriate delivery method based on individual circumstances and maternal-fetal well-being.
  • Safe Surgical Environment: At SHIFAA PAN African Hospitals, we prioritize patient safety during cesarean section procedures by ensuring adherence to strict sterile techniques, infection control protocols, and anesthesia management practices. Our experienced obstetric surgeons and operating room staff are committed to providing high-quality care in a safe and supportive environment.
