Report of a breech cesarean section maternal death
1Gerald Wightman Lawson is a former Consultant Obstetrician, John Hunter Hospital, Newcastle, Australia.
Abstract:
In Australia in 2007, a woman with two previous normal vaginal deliveries underwent an emergency cesarean section at full dilatation of the cervix with a breech presentation. The woman died after a severe hemorrhage. The official Coroner's Report attributed the cause of death to postpartum hemorrhage, whereas the breech presentation was barely mentioned, suggesting that complications with breech cesarean deliveries are under-appreciated and under-reported.
