Title
Fetal outcome in term frank breech primipara delivered vaginally and by elective cesarean section.
A retrospective study was carried out over a 3-year period comparing the fetal outcome of primiparous term frank breech delivered vaginally with those by elective cesarean section. There were 87 patients delivered by vaginal route and 176 by abdominal route. The staff delivered 13 per cent by vaginal route against 57 per cent by residents. There were no statistical differences in apgar score at 1 and 5 minutes with regard to the routes of delivery, different fetal birthweights and obstetrical experience of the accoucheur. There were no perinatal deaths. The concept of elective cesarean section in all primiparous term frank breech should be reconsidered.
