One hundred and sixty-one symphysiotomies were performed at Harari Maternity Hospital, Rhodesia, over a 6-year period. Indications for the operation are discussed and fetal and maternal results reviewed. Seventy-two patients suffered from postoperative complications but the majority of these were minor and of short duration. Multiparous patients did not have a higher morbidity than did primiparous ones. It is concluded that symphysiotomy has a useful role to play in a teaching hospital, provided it is performed by an experienced surgeon on carefully selected patients.
在6年时间里，罗得西亚的哈拉里妇产医院共进行了161例耻骨联合切开术。文中讨论了该手术的适应症，并回顾了胎儿和产妇的手术结果。72名患者术后出现并发症，但其中大多数为轻微且持续时间较短的并发症。经产妇的发病率并不高于初产妇。得出的结论是，耻骨联合切开术在教学医院中可发挥有益作用，前提是由经验丰富的外科医生对精心挑选的患者进行该手术。
