AbstractTrue CPD is a tenuous diagnosis because twothird or more women diagnose as having this disorder and deliver d by caesarian section, subsequently deliver even larger new born vaginally, leading to necrotic trauma to the bladder, leading to stress incontinence and fistulas. All women admitted to the labor room with obstructed labor and its sequelae. On admission detailed history was noted. General examination on admission was made, like stature, anemia, shock, dehydration, jaundice, pedal edema, and bladder – bowel distention. Vital signs like respiratory rate, pulse rate, temperature and blood pressures were noted.In our study, 4% delivered vaginally of which 2% delivered by forceps and 56% by cesarean section and 40% underwent laprotomy. A study by Konje et al shows 82% emergency caesarian section, 12% of the mothers had normal fetal cardiac activity, 44% had non-recurring pattern and in 44% fetal cardiac activity was absent.
