General Surgeon, Dr. Shinas Hussain's Response

Hello,

There is a single loop of umbilical cord is seen around the neck of the baby. This might cause respiratory distress during delivery. Caesarean section will be the safe option, however an experienced gynaecologist can untie the cord even in normal delivery also.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
