Sažetak

Aim To investigate the association of cornual-fundal location
of the placenta and breech presentation at term delivery.
Methods This study was conducted at the Department
of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Novi Sad, in 2011. The inclusion
criteria were delivery at ≥37 weeks of gestation,
singleton gestation, and cornual-fundal location of the
placenta determined by ultrasonography at ≥37 weeks
of gestation when 3/4 or more of the placenta was in the
cornual-fundal region.
Results Out of 2750 ultrasound examinations performed,
143 showed cornual-fundal location of the placenta (frequency
5.2%). Eighty six cases had cephalic presentation
(60.14%) and 57 (39.86%) had breech presentation. Of the
remaining cases with non- cornual-fundal location, 2585
had cephalic presentation and 22 (0.84%) had breech presentation.
The difference in the frequency of breech presentation
between the cornual-fundal and non-cornualfundal
groups was significant (χ2 = 77.78, P < 0.001).
Conclusion Cornual-fundal location of the placenta may
be an important clue in resolving the etiology of a number
of cases of breech presentation at term delivery.
