In the history of medicine, at the earliest time, if it was caesarean section, people would definitely choose vertical incision. Later, after the technology of crosscutting was well known, they began to choose crosscutting, but the advantages of these two methods are different, so now many people are arguing about which is better. In fact, these two cutting methods are horizontal and vertical, and the incisions are similar. Other steps are the same, because they are all in people's abdomen, and the level of incision is the same, so the postoperative pain is the same.

The operation time of vertical incision is shorter and safer, because it is a vertical incision and you can see the situation inside the abdomen. If placenta previa or infant asphyxia occurs, emergency measures can be taken to protect the safety of the mother and the baby in the body. Moreover, this kind of operation is easier to find the baby's head and pull it out directly, which will not oppress the mother's uterine bottom, and the probability of adhesion in the mother's abdomen after operation will be smaller.

But the beauty of transverse cutting is better than vertical cutting. The surgical wound will be small, consistent with the direction of human skin texture, and the postoperative recovery will be fast. The downside is that doctors need rich experience. If it is not qualified enough, it is easy to damage the surrounding liver, and the suture should be fast. If the operation is improper, the abdominal cavity can easily stick together, and more serious cases require surgery.

But this is generally not the case, and the infection rate is relatively low. Be sure to consult a doctor before the operation to find out which method is suitable for your physique.
