"TOLAC SEEMS SAFE": Ya Don't Say. (NEW DATA)

In the ACOG Practice Bulletin 205 (Reaffirmed August 2025), the stated risk of uterine rupture with TOLAC is stated as 0.7% (after 1 prior LTCS). However, as our podcast tag list holds true, "Medicine Moves Fast". In an new upcoming publication from Obstet Gynecol (The Green Journal), May 2025, authors looked at the rate of uterine rupture with TOLAC over a 12 year interval. The rate of uterine rupture was NOT close to the national quoted rate in the Practice Bulletin. This information, which was also presented at the Jan-Feb 2025 Pregnancy Meeting, can be very helpful in counseling patients desiring TOLAC. Listen in for details.
