Abstract
Limited reports exist about the frequency of compound presentation aft er external cephalic version. A compound hand and foot presentation is reported after external cephalic version in a woman desiring vaginal birth after cesarean delivery. We report a mechanism by which a forwar d roll during external cephalic version may predispose an infant in co mplete breech position to a compound foot presentation.
