Central Tropical Disease Hospital (BV), said on the afternoon of December 22, doctors from the Hospital’s Department of Obstetrics successfully cesarean section for pregnant women (40 years old, residing in Dong Anh district, Hanoi City)). Before that, this woman had been followed up at the hospital. Through ultrasound, doctors said that the size of the fetus is quite large, so there was careful preparation before the operation.
Dr. Nguyen Thi Thu Ha, deputy director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Central Hospital for Tropical Diseases, said the pregnant woman was completely healthy, had no medical history and had 2 normal deliveries, one by caesarean section. However, since the fetus is too large, pregnant women may face the risk of bleeding due to uterine sputum, an overly elastic uterus.
Before cesarean section, doctors have explained to pregnant women and their families about the high risk of hysterectomy and, for such large babies, the risk of gestational diabetes is very high. In addition, the baby may also experience dangerous postpartum hypoglycemia.

Fortunately, the operation was successful. The baby was born with a weight of 5.75, healthy, crying loudly. After birth, the health of the mother and child is stable. After the surgery is completed, the pregnant woman and the newborn continue to be closely monitored, such as monitoring the mother’s uterine contraction, avoiding vaginal bleeding.
The large size of the fetus presents many health risks for both mother and baby. Therefore, Dr. Ha recommends pregnant women during pregnancy to regularly monitor the health of the fetus as prescribed by the doctor before delivery.
