Show Hint

Updated On: Jun 24, 2026
  • Placenta previa type III
  • Previous two classical caesarean section
  • Suspected CPD
  • Previous caesarean section with adequate pelvis
Show Solution

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Allowing a woman with a uterine scar to labour is only justified when the chance of the scar giving way is small and nothing new blocks a vaginal delivery.

Step 2: The classic green light is a roomy, adequate pelvis after a single lower segment scar performed for a cause that will not recur. That description matches previous caesarean section with adequate pelvis.

Step 3: Each of the other choices is a red flag. A type III placenta previa physically covers most of the cervical opening and demands abdominal delivery.

Step 4: Two prior classical incisions place the thin, poorly healing upper segment under labour stress and invite rupture, while a pelvis suspected of disproportion guarantees obstruction. Hence none of these permit a trial of labour.
