Sling support during pregnancy after hemipelvectomy: case report
A 32-year-old woman delivered a normal male infant by the vertex 14 years after hemipelvectomy. During pregnancy she remained ambulatory with forearm crutches and wore a specially designed sling that she felt provided support and comfort. It is suggested that such external support to the uterus of the pregnant woman after hemipelvectomy may enhance presentation by the vertex.
