The 2 cases presented show the potential morbidity and mortality which may be associated with umbilical cord haematoma.

External cephalic version at term.

The case notes of women with singleton term (37 weeks' gestation and beyond) breech presentation and delivery were retrospectively reviewed.

The Caesarean section rate was significantly lower in the group which had attempted ECV compared to the group which did not.
