MODEL RELEASED. Caesarean section. Baby being delivered feet first during a caesarean section. One of the surgeons has his fingers in the baby's mouth. A caesarean section involves making an incision through the abdomen and uterus in order to remove the baby. Caesareans are usually performed when a vaginal delivery would lead to complications, although some women choose to have their baby delivered this way.
