Pathophysiology
Face presentation is an extended attitude
Results in largest head diameter:

Occipitomental
Increases diameter 3 cm (24%) over flexed head

Diagnosis During pregnancy High head Head protuberance on the same side

Diagnosis

During pregnancy
High head
Head protuberance on the same side as the

back
USG
In labour
Mouth, jaws, nose,alveolar and orbital ridges are felt

Labour in face presentation Prolonged labour Early ROM Perineal & vaginal

Labour in face presentation

Prolonged labour
Early ROM
Perineal & vaginal tears
May end in

obstructed labour due to mentoposterior or mentotransverse position
Слайд 11

Management Do not attempt to convert face presentation to vertex Never

Management

Do not attempt to convert face presentation to vertex
Never apply

vacuum extractor to face
Do not apply internal scalp electrodes
Avoid Oxytocin in most cases
Consider large episiotomy if fetus delivers vaginally
Слайд 12

Management No active intervention Wait for the spontaneous rotation and delivery

Management

No active intervention
Wait for the spontaneous rotation and delivery
Epidural analgesia
If prolonged

second stage and mento- anterior :apply forceps
Слайд 13

Cont. If persistant mentotransverse: rotation manually or with Kielland forceps In persistant mentoposterior: C.Section

Cont.

If persistant mentotransverse:
rotation manually or with Kielland forceps
In persistant mentoposterior:

C.Section

Epidemiology
Incidence: 0.02% of singleton deliveries
Brow is an area between the

orbital ridges and anterior fontanelle
Results when head is halfway between flexion & extension

Diagnosis
Never made during pregnancy
In labour
High head
Frontal suture & anterior fontanelle on

one side and orbital ridges on other side

Management
Cesarean section required in most cases
Brow presentation rarely can deliver

vaginally unless:
spontaneously converts to vertex or face presentation
fetus is very small or pelvis is very large
