The state of the uterine cicatrix and more specifically its sufficiency are extremely important for the obstetrician when he has to choose between a second caesarean operation and a vaginal delivery. This decision determines the post partum and postoperative techniques and behaviour. The author reports a case of a woman who has vaginally delivered a child 11 months after a caesarean operation. This case demonstrates that approaching personally the obstetrician can decide in favour of a vaginal delivery after a previous caesarean operation even in the cases of pregnancy which has begun before the 6 month period after the caesarean operation has elapsed.
