36-year-old woman at 33 weeks gestation presents with a breech fetus and a past cesarean. But one key detail in her history shifts the entire delivery plan. In this Master Series episode, we dive into the high-stakes reasoning behind why some uterine scars mean no labor — ever.

You’ll learn how to:
• Identify contraindications to vaginal delivery
