A lower (uterine) segment caesarean section (LSCS) is the most commonly used type of caesarean section. [1] Most commonly, a baby is delivered by making a transverse incision in the lower uterine segment, above the attachment of the urinary bladder to the uterus.
Caesarean section, also known as C-section, cesarean, or caesarean delivery, is the surgical procedure by which one or more babies are delivered through an incision in the mother's abdomen. It is often performed because vaginal delivery would put the mother or child at risk (of paralysis or even death). [ 2 ]
A low vertical incision and a midline incision, also known as a classic caesarean incision, may be preferred during a labor that is preterm. Since the lower uterine segment is not yet fully developed during a preterm labor, these two incisions are preferred in order to provide adequate space for manipulations during delivery of the fetus.

If the previous caesarean(s) involved a low transverse incision there is less risk of uterine rupture than if there was a low vertical incision, classical incision, T-shaped, inverted T-shaped, or J-shaped incision. A previous successful vaginal delivery (before or after the caesarean section) increases the chances of a successful VBAC.
Pfannenstiel incision, Kerr incision, or Pfannenstiel-Kerr [2] incision is the lower transverse incision made in the lower segment of uterus below the umbilicus and just above the pubic symphysis. [3] [4] It is commonly used in Caesarian section [5] and for abdominal hysterectomy for benign disease.
