BACKGROUNDBy definition breech presentation means foetal buttocks or the podalic pole of foetus is the presenting part, with sacrum being the denominator. Most newborns are born with cephalic presentation, but at the end of pregnancy around 2.5%-3% are found to be breech Before the end of pregnancy, the breech presentation is much more common about 20% of babies at 28 weeks are breech and 15% at 32 weeks. Caesarean section for breech presentation has been suggested as a way of reducing the associated perinatal problems in many institutions. . Studying breech presentation from the aspect of incidence, aaetiology, type along with maternal & perinatal outcome. RESULTSDuring given period there were 6153 deliveries. The study consisted of 172 cases of breech delivery out of them there were 106 term and preterm constituted 66 cases. Most women belonged to 21-25 years of age group. Prevalence of breech delivery in this study was 2.79% Breech presentation was more common in multipara having an incidence of 56.4%, while 43.6% were primiparas. Vaginal delivery occurred in 52.90% cases while caesarean section was done in 47.09% cases. CONCLUSIONThe present study confirms the higher association of breech presentation with multiparity. Various aetiological factors observed for breech presentation are -prematurity, oligohydramnios, polyhydramnios, placenta previa and foetopelvic disproportion. Perinatal morbidity and mortality was increased. Vaginal breech delivery is associated with increased perinatal morbidity and mortality than abdominal delivery. So, when the stakes are this much high one has to choose between the maternal risk of caesarean section and foetal risk of vaginal delivery to arrive at final decision.
Verrucous carcinoma of the vulva is a rare subtype of squamous cell cancer and tends to appear as a slowly growing wart with good overall prognosis. Most commonly affects elderly, postmenopausal women.Here, we present a case concerning an 85 years old postmenopausal woman on follow up after punch biopsy suggesting Bowenoid papulosis of the vulva. The treatment decided was only surgical. A review of the literature shows the rarity of this lesion of the female genital tract.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
