How to: a breech vaginal delivery before 25 weeks of gestation.

ABSTRACT

Delivery before 25 weeks of gestation has become a more frequent occurrence in our maternity units and can be a difficult obstetrical situation to manage when the fetus is breech. We describe a new obstetrical maneuver enabling vaginal birth of a breech fetus before 25 weeks of gestation. It enables the fetal mobile to be fully grasped and secured, thus facilitating passage through the genital tract.
