Abstract
Cesarean delivery may be complicated by dystocia if the incision size is inadequate. A test is described that may be easily applied at cesarean section, creating greater objectivity in the determination of surgical incision size. One hundred patients were studied prospectively. Patients with incisions that passed the test had a shorter mean time of delivery and less difficult deliveries than those of patients with incisions that failed the test. We conclude that the "Allis" test is a simple way to reduce the incidence of dystocia at cesarean delivery.
