While some consider manual removal of the placenta to be one of the most serious operations, giving a high morbidity and mortality (Okinchits, Skrobansky, Genter), others (Pisemsky, Timofeev, Ginenevich) consider this operation no more dangerous than other vaginal operations. In practice, this divergence of views leads to the fact that some, considering this operation completely safe, sometimes abuse it, others, regarding it too strictly, are late with it, bringing women in childbirth to great blood loss.</span></span></p>Kazan Medical archiveКазанский медицинский архив
