Summary. A case of extremely severe birth asphyxia is reported. In spite of successful resuscitation the arterial pH was still only 6.6 at the age of 1 h. Assessment at 3 years 10 months revealed that the child was not only completely normal, but was of superior intelligence. This case demonstrates the advisability of maintaining an optimistic approach even when very severe fetal acidosis is detected around the time of birth.
