Orlando Caruso, MD Ospedale di Seriate - Bergamo Italy >> Each case should be assessed on individual factors. If the second twin has been accurately assessed, and is not substantially larger than the first, then I see no reason not to attempt a vaginal delivery. External cephalic version may be attempted after delivery of the second twin, and/or delivery by breech extraction. Epidural anesthesia is the ideal method. I recently helped two younger colleagues do just that - that's what happens when your an old fart obstetrician. My 2 cents. Robert Modugno MD FACOG Marietta, GA
