Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: To review the caesarean sections (C/S) performed at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital (SQUH), Muscat, Oman, over a period of three years.
METHODS: The records of 727 patients who underwent C/S at SQUH during the three year period from 1st July 1998 to 30th June 2001 were analysed.
RESULTS: The C/S rate during this period was 13%, 42.6% of which were repeat C/S. Most were performed on women in the age group 26-30 years and of parity 2-3. The majority of the caesareans were at term and done under general anaesthesia. The most common indication was fetal distress and the most common complication was fever.
CONCLUSIONS: The rate, indications, nature and frequency of complications of C/S performed at SQUH are similar to those at obstetric departments in academic hospitals in developed countries.

摘要：
目的：回顾在苏丹卡布斯大学医院（SQUH）进行的剖腹产（C/S），马斯喀特,阿曼,在三年的时间里。
方法：分析了1998年7月1日至2001年6月30日在SQUH进行C/S治疗的727例患者的记录。
结果：在此期间的C/S率为13％，其中42.6%为重复C/S。大多数是在26-30岁年龄段和2-3岁年龄段的女性上进行的。大多数剖腹产是在足月和全身麻醉下完成的。最常见的指征是胎儿窘迫，最常见的并发症是发热。
结论：比率，适应症,在SQUH进行C/S的并发症的性质和频率与发达国家的学术医院的产科相似.
