dc.description.abstractAbstract Nowadays, even in developing countries Cesarean section is the most common method of delivery for the breech presentation. However, in rural parts of the countries still vaginal route is the only option. Trauma to the after coming head is the common issue among the contributors of birth trauma during breech delivery. Entrapment of after coming head is an unpredictable obstetrical emergency. If the fetus is alive, options from application of obstetric forceps to giving Dührssen incisions can be kept in choice. Cesarean section is done when all the methods fail to deliver the head. But, when the fetus is not salvageable, delivery of after coming head by craniotomy can reduce unnecessary morbidity of Cesarean section. In the present report, a case with entrapment of after coming head of dead preterm fetus for 6 hrs of home delivery was described and the management of this condition was reviewed. Keywords: After coming head; Breech; Craniotomy; Obstetrical emergency.
