Perineal tear 29 (7.5%) and episiotomy extension 31 (8%) were the most common maternal complications, while caput succedaneum 45 (11.6%) was the most neonatal complication. The most common indication of operative vaginal delivery was prolonged second stage 203 (52.2%). Vacuum-assisted delivery (AOR 0.53; 95%\u2009CI 0.29 to 0.96), two tractions (AOR 2.19; 95%\u2009CI 1.23 to 3.90), birth weight less than 2.5 kg (AOR 1.85; 95%\u2009CI 1.21 to 2.83) and mid fetal station (AOR 2.9; 95%\u2009CI 1.49 to 5.64) were significantly associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Adverse pregnancy outcomes following operative vaginal delivery were high.
