[On the incidence of knots in the umbilical cord (author's transl)].
The mechanisms of the development of knots in the umbilical cord are described. The different types of knots are enumerated. The causative factors for the development of a knot in the umbilical cord are discussed. This paper is based on a statistical evaluation of the deliveries of the Maternity Hospital of the University of Bonn from 1967-1970. These data have been adopted from the Author's M.D. Thesis of 1972. At the end of the paper the comparative anatomy of the umbilical cord complications is discussed.
