Abstract
Repeat caesarean sections increase the possibility of maternal morbidity. Worldwide, the need for a trial of labor after caesarean delivery is gaining more ground in selected cases. Here, we report a case of an unbooked 37-year-old multigravida, with a history of five (5) previous lower-segment caesarean sections who presented in spontaneous labor. A live male baby of 2900 grams was delivered following episiotomy. Post-partum, she was observed with normal findings and a serial follow-up ultrasound scan showed normal uterine contours and surrounding structures. As the evidence for the practice of vaginal delivery in women who underwent 2 or more previous LSCS are still fewer, this report intends to highlight the possibility of successful vaginal birth after multiple caesarean sections putting into consideration the optimal care of the parturient. The term ''V-back" was coined from the Roman numeral 'v' meaning five (5), the case here has had five (5) previous lower segment cesarean sections come "back" for spontaneous vaginal delivery.
