Maternal and neonatal short-term outcome after vaginal breech delivery >36 weeks of gestation with and without MRI-based pelvimetric measurements: a Hannover retrospective cohort study
Vaginal breech delivery is associated with lower APGAR scores and umbilical arterial pH compared with caesarean section but does not result in increased neonatal asphyxia or NICU admission. Length of stay in the NICU is shorter when a newborn is admitted after vaginal delivery. MRI pelvimetry may improve the outcome of the newborn by further selection.
