It has been well known that the breech presintation is the most frequent abnormal presentation and has inherent obstetric problems especially on the fetal and maternal morbidity and complications in primigravida. From Jaruary, 1950 to December, 1968, there were 377 cases of breech delivery in the Dept. of Obstetrics and Gynecology, National Medical Center. The authors attempted ten years clinical survey on the above materials consisted of breech delivery of singletons of nullipara and multipara, and twins. The results obtained were as follows : 1) The incidence of breech delivery was 2.9% in singlitons and 3.8% in all deliveries of singlitons and twins. 2) The incidence based on the parity was 3.1% or over in nullipara and 2.1% or over in multipara. Age distribution was concentrated on the ages between 26-30. The youngest was 20 and the oldest was 53. 3) As to the gestational weeks and baby weight, 71.9% was 38 weeks or over and 72.6% was 2,500 gm or over, respectively. 4) Regarding the type of breech presentation the most common was frank breech (76 cases) and the others were in incomplete (66 cases) and complete breech (20 cases). 5) The mode of delivery in orders were partial extraction(65.7%), cesarean section (13.6%), spontaneous delivery (11.2%0, total extraction (6.2%0 and the other (3.3%). 6) As to the duration of the labor, 78% of nullipara and 84% of multipara were completed within 24 hours in vaginal delivery. 7) The maternal and fetal complications were in orders of toxemias of pregnancy (66 cases), early rupture of membranes (26 cases), cord prolapse (13 cases), contracted pelvis (12 cases) and the remainders were placenta previa, abruptio placentae, prolonged labor, retained placenta and postpartum bleeding. 8) The perinatal mortality was 111.9 in nullipara, 265.9 in, multipara and 200.0 in all. 9) No maternal death was encountered.
