In this study, operative details and the postoperative courses of 42 patients who underwent cesarean section during Jan 2003-Dec 2004 at the Central Mothers’ Hospital were reported. The surgery used lower segment transverse incision technique with nonclosure of the visceral and parietal peritoneum. The Hinh Minh incision is performed. The uterine incision was closed in one layer with continuous, non-locking sutures, using a polyglactin no. 1 (Vicryl). Visceral and parietal peritoneum were left opened. The muscles were not approximated. The fascia was closed with a continuous non-locking suture of no. 1 Vicryl. The skin was closed with a continuous non-locking intradermic suture of no 2/0 nylon. Prophylactic antibiotic intravenous was used just after clamping the cord. Mean duration of intervention was 19.8  2.8 minutes. Nonclosure of the visceral and parietal peritoneum reduced operation time, and bowel function recovered more quickly
