Description: Rationale: Perimortem caesarean section (PMCS) is an emergency procedure performed in pregnant women over 20 weeks of gestation with cardiac arrest, in order to save the mother and the foetus, or only one of them. The objective of the review was to present clinical traits and evaluate survival of mothers and newborns as well as the complications following PMCS. Materials and methods: A systematic review between March and May 2021 was performed using the PRISMA method with the terms "perimortem caesarean section" "postmortem caesarean section", "maternal cardiac arrest", "perimortem caesarean section "AND "case report" "postmortem caesarean section" AND "case report". Results: 23 papers from 12 countries with 39 cases were counted. Of the total sample, 17.94% of the mothers survived and of these, 42.85% had neurological complications. Of 39 newborns counted, 69.23% survived, 28.20% died and in 2.56% the information was missing. 30.76% of the cases followed the five-minute rule and 56.41% required 6 or more minutes, 12.82% did not specify time. Conclusion: The results of this analysis demonstrated higher mortality in women who had a cardiac arrest during pregnancy related to the neonates who survived. The possibility of performing PMCS should neither be ruled out even if the established five-minute time frame has passed, nor should time be invested in verifying foetal viability.
