From 1969 to 1976, 15,715 episiotomies were done in 24,598 deliveries. The median episiotomy was progressively preferred and the technique of suture improved. The incidence of secondary sutures for dehiscence was reduced from 74 (3.4%) in 1971 to 6 (0.3%) in 1976. Extension into the rectum expectedly rose in incidence. The figures presented, show that the complication rate following mediolateral episiotomy is higher than following median episiotomy including the complication rate with extensions into the rectum.
1969年至1976年期间，在24598例分娩中实施了15715例会阴切开术。会阴正中切开术逐渐更受青睐，缝合技术也有所改进。会阴切开术后裂开进行二次缝合的发生率从1971年的74例（3.4%）降至1976年的6例（0.3%）。延伸至直肠的发生率预期有所上升。所呈现的数据表明，包括延伸至直肠的并发症发生率在内，会阴侧切术后的并发症发生率高于会阴正中切开术。
