Is a cesarean delivery at term referring to a vertical incision?

Patient's question:

Hello, I would like to ask, does the term "" refer to a vertical incision?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, during the induction of labor after a cesarean section, a transverse uterine incision is generally performed, not a longitudinal one. In this case, the transverse incision is usually made at the mid-portion of the uterus. Some may adopt a curved transverse incision, which helps in the delivery of the fetus. In addition to treating the induction of labor, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood at all times to enhance their physical condition and accelerate the recovery process.
