Shoulder dystocia

Brachial plexus injury in neonates is a rare obstetrical complication, but it can cause huge anxiety to parents if occurring and sometimes leading to legal disputes in obstetrical practice. Trauma during birth delivery is mainly due to the over-stretch of fetal neck which is the main cause of brachial plexus injury in infants. However, those injuries are self-limited and most of them will self-recover. We conducted a retrospective analysis on ten cases diagnosed of post-delivery brachial plexus injury under monitoring at Tu Du Hospital from January to November 2018.

Breech is a longitudinal presentation in which the cephalic pole occupies the fundus and the caudal (podalic) pole lies in the lower segment of the uterine cavity or within the birth canal. Overall breech presentation occurs in 3%–4% of singleton pregnancies commencing labor, but has a much higher incidence in multiple gestations (e.g., 25% of first twins and 50% of second twins are breech). The incidence rises further in higher order multiple pregnancies.
