This letter argues that the practice of nonclosure of visceral and parietal peritoneum during cesarean delivery cannot be justified based on existing evidence. Historically, both layers of peritoneum were closed due to the rational belief that leaving raw surgical areas exposed leads to adhesion formation. While guidelines now recommend nonclosure based on short-term outcomes like reduced analgesic use, randomized trials have also found equal numbers that contradict these findings. The author argues that peritoneal closure should be recommended to prevent adhesion formation without need for further randomized trials, as observational studies also support this conclusion.
