keisrilõike

Keisrilõike, also known as a cesarean section or C-section, is a surgical procedure used to deliver a baby through incisions in the abdomen and uterus. It is typically performed when a vaginal birth is not possible or poses a risk to the mother or baby. Reasons for a C-section can include fetal distress, a breech presentation, complications with the placenta, or previous uterine surgeries.

The procedure involves making an incision through the mother's abdominal wall and then through the uterine wall. The baby is then carefully delivered. Following the delivery, the incisions are closed with sutures or staples. Recovery time for a C-section is generally longer than for a vaginal birth, and it requires a period of rest and careful monitoring. While a C-section is a safe procedure, it is still major surgery and carries potential risks such as infection, bleeding, and injury to surrounding organs. Modern medical practices aim to minimize these risks and ensure the well-being of both mother and child. The decision to perform a C-section is made by medical professionals based on a thorough assessment of the individual circumstances.
