A Delivery for the nulliparous woman with a fetus in breech presentation is almost
always cesarean section. The greatest fetal risk in the vaginal delivery of breech
presentation is that the head (largest part of the fetus) is the last to be delivered.
The delivery of the rest of the baby must be quick so that the infant can breathe.
