AB  - Cesarean  section  is  an  operation  by  which  a  child  is  delivered  through  an  incision  in  the  abdominal  wall  and  the  uterus.  The  first  professional  cesarean  section  was  performed  in  the  United  States  in  1827.  Before  1800,  cesarean  section  was  performed  rarely  and  was  usually  fatal.  In  London  and  Edinburgh  in  1877,  of  35  cesareans  performed,  33  resulted  in  the  death  of  the  mother.  By  1877,  there  had  been  71  cesarean  section  operations  in  the  United  States.  The  mortality  rate  was  52  percent,  mainly  because  of  infection  and  hemorrhage.
