ABSTRACT
Paravaginal delivery is extremely rare. Perineal delivery was reported in just fewer than 100 cases, most of which occurred in the 19th and early 20th century. To our knowledge this is the first case of labial delivery to be reported. The baby delivered through a lateral vaginal tear and through the labia majora with little trauma to the underlying tissues. Explanations of how this could have happened and how to prevent it are discussed.
