Abstract
The case notes of women with singleton term (37 weeks' gestation and b eyond) 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 C aesarean section rate was significantly lower in the group which had a ttempted ECV compared to the group which did not.
