title: [Breech presentation - more than just caesarean vs. spontaneous birth].
abstract: The cesarean section rate and the associated complications are still rising in Germany. An important indication is term breech in singletons.  Not significant data concerning a higher morbidity or mortality in vaginal breech birth indicate the cesarean but a deficit in education and experience.
