Abstract
Umbilical cord prolapse is still nowadays a serious complication of pregnancy, responsible for a significant rate of neonatal mortality. The aim in case of cord prolapse is to obtain fetal delivery the quickest way possible so as to improve the neonatal outcome. In some particular obstetrical situations such as breech presentations and second twin deliveries, birth occurs faster if performed vaginally as shown by our case study.
