Umbilical cord avulsion means that the cord has been separated from the placenta proper. Usually this occurs when there is too much tension imparted on the cord during the delivery of the placenta, also known as the third stage of labor. Management would require manual extraction of the placenta, an extremely uncomfortable procedure, to say the least. Avulsion can be avoided with patience as the current guidelines allow up to 30 minutes for delivery of the placenta.
