Laparoelytrotomy refers to the inadvertent delivery of the fetus through transverse incision over the vagina during a cesarean section. It is found to be associated with increased risk of maternal morbidity. Being an unintended, complication of cesarean section in advanced labor; it can be avoided by proper planning of the uterine incision. We report a case of inadvertent laparoelytrotomy during cesarean section for cephalopelvic disproportion in the second stage.
