    Journal: Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol; 2000 Mar; 89(1):81-4. PubMed ID: 10733029.
    Abstract:
    A case of severe shoulder dystocia is reported in which, after other methods had failed, cephalic replacement succeeded but was very difficult. The infant suffered severe damage. A review of methods to relieve shoulder dystocia is given, with special attention to published cases of the Zavanelli manoeuvre. It could only be used when all other methods fail.
