Abstract
Summary: A series of 138 patients in whom symphysiotomy had been performed is presented. The vicissitudes of this operation are reviewed and an evaluation has been attempted of its role in the management of moderate disproportion. Early and late complications were few and rarely serious if recommended guidelines were adhered to.Keywords
