Abstract
Summary: The case notes of women with singleton term (37 weeks' gestation and beyond) breech presentation and delivery were retrospectively reviewed. Thirty‐two of the 72 women in the study group had attempted external cephalic version at term, with a success rate of 53% (17 women). The Caesarean section rate was significantly lower in the group which had attempted ECV compared to the group which did not.Keywords
