Malposition

Malposition is a term used in obstetrics to describe the malposition of the fetal head during labor, when it is in such a position that the diameter of its skull in relation to the pelvis is too large. This can be caused by various factors, including the anatomical features of the mother or fetus, as well as the incorrect position of the baby in the womb.

If the fetal head is in an incorrect position, this can lead to various complications during labor and even the need for surgery. For example, if the fetus's head is too large, it can cause difficulty in passing through the mother's birth canal, which can lead to rupture or injury. In addition, improper positioning of the fetal head can make it difficult for the baby to breathe and cause hypoxia.

To prevent malposition of the fetal head and associated complications, obstetricians and gynecologists conduct a thorough examination of the mother and fetus before labor begins. If there is a suspicion of malposition of the head, additional studies may be prescribed, such as ultrasound or CTG.

In addition, doctors may use a variety of treatments to help the baby pass through the birth canal and avoid complications. For example, some doctors may recommend using special instruments or breathing techniques to reduce the size of the fetal head. A caesarean section may also be necessary if other methods fail.

In general, malposition of the fetal head is a serious complication during labor and can lead to serious consequences for mother and baby. Therefore, obstetricians and gynecologists must be very careful and careful during childbirth to prevent possible complications.
