title: [Delivery in adolescents].
abstract: The course of delivery to patients aged 16 and under during 1957 to 1961 and 1967 to 1971 is reported. The frequency of deliveries has not changed. Vaginal delivery occurred in 140 of 142 patients. The delivery of the young girls was characterized by an uncomplicated course. The incidence of breech, cesarean section and assisted deliveries was low. Neonatal complications and the perinatal mortality rate are attributed to prematurity and malformation. Prematurity might be reduced by an intensive care of pregnancy.
