A comparable rate of levator ani muscle injury in operative vaginal delivery (forceps and vacuum) according to the characteristics of the instrumentation
(Wiley Open Access, 2019)
Introduction: Forceps delivery is associated with a high rate of levator ani muscle (LAM) trauma (avulsion) at 35%-65% whereas data on avulsion rates after vacuum delivery vary greatly. Nevertheless, a common characteristic ...

Influence of the disengagement of the forceps on levator ani muscle injuries in instrumental delivery: a multicenter study
(Wiley, 2019)
Introduction: Forceps use is the main risk factor for levator ani muscle (LAM) injuries. We believe that the disengagement of the forceps branches before delivery of the fetal head could influence LAM injuries, so we aimed ...
