RESUMEN
Durante un parto que se desarrollaba normalmente, al efectuar maniobras habituales de tracción cefálica, la obstetra fue sorprendida por la decapitación fetal. El informe de autopsia inculpó a la obstetra, y el patólogo atribuyó el hecho a una tracción excesiva y brutal a dicha profesional. Un análisis de las anotaciones en la historia clínica permitió encontrar la causa de este hecho inusual y liberar a dicha obstetra de toda responsabilidad
ABSTRACT
During a presumable normal labor and delivery, while tractioning the fetus as usual, the doctor midwife was suddenly surprised by fetal decapitation and found herself holding the baby's head in her hands. The coroner, in a very subjective evaluation of the facts, indicted the midwife, accusing her of applying unusual and brutal forces to disengage the fetus to accomplish the delivery. He even coined the word "brutalectomy" to describe the situation. A careful analysis of the medical record revealed the most plausible explanation of this unusual event
