When studying obstetrics, a good obstetric phantom is of no small importance as a teaching aid. Teaching operational obstetrics is unthinkable even without it, since one reading cannot be so imprinted in the minds of listeners as the direct application of one or another technique by themselves, and one has to reckon with a number of details, like at the bedside of a woman in labor. No matter how great the clinic is, a number of obstetric operations, due to the rarity of their use, remains unseen by the majority of those involved.

Introduction: In modern Obstetrics, with rising trends of primary Cesarean section (CS) for fetal and maternal interests, pregnancy over the scarred uterus is a challenge to all treating obstetricians. How better the cesarean scar is sutured, its exact fate in next pregnancy is still not measurable. Objective of this study was to evaluate the status of previous cesarean scar during repeat cesarean section (RCS) and calculate the maternal morbidity in those cases in a tertiary hospital.

At the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital (KBTH), a national referral center in Accra, Ghana, the estimated maternal mortality ratio of women with and without SCD is 8,300 and 690 per 100,000 live births respectively (US, general population, maternal mortality ratio 14 per 100, 000 live births). In 2015, a multi-disciplinary obstetric SCD team was formed comprising obstetricians, hematologists, pulmonologists and nurses. In a before and after study desi
