    Abstract:
    Between 1966 and 1974, 90% of 581 single breech presentations were delivered vaginally. The incidence of Caesarean Section was 9.5%. The overall perinatal mortality was 14%. After elimination of premature deliveries under 1000 grams, stillbirth prior to labour and non-viable anomalies, the perinatal mortality was 5.6%. The perinatal mortality in infants over 2500 grams was 0.69%.
