Jo, I was exploring the thought that if the breech was stuck for so long it could have put uneven pressure on the lower segment for a long time and perhaps cause dehishance or “pressure areas” which could lead to necrosis and the following events.  Not a criticism, merely a lateral thought.  As a supporter of breech vaginal birth, I am interested in all the possible ramifications. It was a long delay.  Perhaps for this individual woman a long delay with a cephalic presentation would be the same, however, the head is round and smooth and would cause even pressures?  Who knows, as I said, just exploring possibilities.

Do you really think that a massive PPH 2.5 weeks (WEEKS, not hours or days) after a ceaser that resulted in a nasty uterine infection is most likely to do with the breech presentation? If the babe was cephalic she still might have stuck at full dilation and had a c/s - would she have been less likely to have gotten an infection or have the PPH?
