Objective:
The mode of delivery of term singleton breech presentation has been argued for decades. Many elements are responsible for the current increase in the rate of elective cesarean delivery. Among these elements, the influence of medical information and patients' choices are unknown.
Patients And Methods:
We studied retrospectively, between January 1996 and December 2005, the mode of term breech delivery in a French maternity.
Results:
Medical information relates primarily to the complications of vaginal birth. Patient's request for an elective Cesarean has been in constant increase since 1996.
Discussion And Conclusion:
Medical information and patients' choices strongly influence the practice of breech delivery.
