Hello,

If the loop of cord is around the fetal neck, then the cesarean section can be done during labor, if there is fetal bradycardia or difficulty in normal vaginal delivery. A single loop of cord around the fetal neck is not an absolute indication for the cesarean section.


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

Regards,
