“…Like other obstetric units [37,42], trend towards cesarean section for breech deliveries was also observed at our institute. However, since our trend analysis did not take into account the different reasons for abdominal breech delivery over an eight-year period, it is difficult to judge whether it reflects an increased tendency of obstetricians to practice cesarean section for breech presentation or whether it is due to increasing proportion of the breech deliveries associated with medical or obstetric complications that were re- Our success rate for vaginal breech delivery was 77 % which was comparable to 79 % observed by Ophir et al [34] and 72 % observed by Flanagan et al [18].…”

“…The lengthened hospital stay among abdominal deliveries compared to vaginal births would have a significant effect on hospital charges [14,42]. Although, the risk of maternal complications was higher among cesarean section groups as compared to vaginally delivered group, the difference was not statistically significant in contrast to what was reported by Cheng and Hannah [9] and Leiberman et al [28] who observed statistically significant lower maternal morbidity among women in the planned vaginal delivery group than in the planned cesarean groups.…”

“…In our study, the similarity in biochemical status in breech and vertex delivery might also have been due to the liberal use of cesarean section (48%) in breech pregnancy, where vaginal delivery was only permitted in selected cases. In support of our results, Teteris et al (17) found comparable CTG changes during the latter part of both vertex and breech delivery. (7).…”

Umbilical cord acid-base state and Apgar score were compared in neonates after breech and vertex term birth. The breech group comprised 149 consecutive newborns, 91 born vaginally and 58 by cesarean section. The control group consisted of a random sample of 150 newborns in vertex presentation: 100 born vaginally and 50 by cesarean section. Among vaginally born babies, the 1-min Apgar score was more often depressed in the breech presentation group than in the vertex group; after 5 min the Apgar scores were comparable in both groups. No difference was found in umbilical cord values of pH and base excess between the breech and the vertex groups when comparison was made within each delivery mode. In both greups, umbilical cord values were lower after vaginal than after abdominal delivery. It is concluded that in selected cases, uneventful vaginal breech labor and delivery at term is not associated with an increased risk of asphyxia.

“…Lors de la phase d'expulsion, une bradycardie est fréquemment observée. Elle dure en moyenne 110 s en cas de présentation du siège contre 69 s en présentation céphalique [68]. Les anomalies du RCF sont bien corrélées à l'état néonatal et en particulier, au score d'Apgar à une et à cinq minutes [63].…”
