초록

The last step of a successful pregnancy is the safe delivery of the fetus. An important question is if the delivery should vaginal or operative.

This review evaluates and summarizes the usefulness of intrapartum ultrasound for the evaluation of labor progress and predicting successful operative vaginal delivery.
