Twin pregnancy with the first twin in breech presentation: Survival and neurodevelopmental outcome of preterm infants at a corrected age of 2 years
Planned mode of delivery did not significantly influence survival in preterm breech-first twins, but confidence intervals were wide. A trend toward poorer neurodevelopment at 2 years was observed after planned vaginal delivery, whereas maternal morbidity was higher after planned caesarean delivery. These findings support individualized decision-making, balancing neonatal and maternal risks.
