Evidence that planned cesarean section for breech at term as preferred method of delivery significantly reduced perinatal mortality and morbidity. External cephalic version at term is associated with reduced breech presentation at delivery and cesarean section rate. Fetal assessment is important to confirm diagnosis, normality, and attitude. Labor management depends on gestational age - cesarean section preferred for breech at term, individualized decision for preterm.

Program and abstracts of the 61st Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association; June 22-26, 2001; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The Norbert Freinkel Lecture, an annual invited event at
the Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association since 1991, is awarded to a speaker selected for outstanding contributions in the field of diabetes and pregnancy. I am honored to be selected as this year's speaker[1] and to provide tribute to Professor Freinkel for his role as a mentor, scientist, and motivator of a generation of researchers. The lifetime clinical and laboratory research work of Professor Freinkel was dedicated to the enhancement of our understanding of the metabolic abnormalities of pregnancies complicated by diabetes. He was the first to introduce the concepts of "accelerated starvation" and "facilitated anabolism" in the fasting and fed states during pregnancy. In addition, he modified Pedersen's hypothesis of maternal hyperglycemia as a basic cause of aberrant fetal development, and viewed pregnancy complicated by diabetes as a disorder of fuel metabolism. In fact, he coined the term to describe this abnormal metabolic state as "fuel-mediated teratogenesis."
