RESULTS: The main indications in both groups were acute fetal distress (SFA) and a history of previous cesarean. The operative time was 34.8 minutes in the technique vs. Pelosi 51.7 minutes in the conventional art. As for the time of resumption of oral intake, technical Pelosi was 8.2 hours vs. 14.2 hours in the conventional art.
