Abstract

Nowadays, the majority of breech deliveries are by cesarean section. In Siriraj Hospital, planned vaginal breech delivery is not our current practice. Compared with vaginal breech delivery, cesarean section can significantly reduce neonatal complications, with a trivial increase in maternal complications. However, cesarean section cannot alleviate all of the complications. In the present report, a case with entrapment of after-coming head in cesarean breech delivery of a term fetus was described, and the management of this emergency condition was reviewed
