To the Editor:Cesarean section(CS)is among the most important and safe procedures in obstetrics.When medically indicated,CS can be a life-saving intervention.During the Chinese one-child policy,couples tended to choose CS for various reasons.In 2010,the CS rate in China rose to among the world’s highest.^([1])Yet,CS can also have various adverse maternal and neonatal consequences.Maternal mortality and maternal and infant complications are higher with CS compared with vaginal delivery.[2]Over the past several decades,CS rates have increased sharply worldwide,and controlling these rates has become among the most prominent obstetric issues.
