Vaginal delivery of non-cephalic second twin: neonatal outcomes in our experience

Objective.The aim of our study is to evaluate neonatal outcomes of the second twin in diamniotic pregnancies enrolled for vaginal delivery, related to the presentation at birth: cephalic versus non cephalic in which we performed obstetrical maneuverers of breech extraction.According with current literature vaginal birth should be proposed for diamniotic twins in which the presenting twin is cephalic, regardless of the presentation of the second twin, if a skilled obstetrician in vaginal breech delivery is available.
