Malpresentation (face, brow)
1.
2. Face: chin to glabella
Results when the head is hyperextended
with the occiput touching the fetal neck
All parts of the face from the chin to the
glabella present in the pelvis
Incidence is about 1/200-1/500 deliveries
5. Denominator The mentum (chin)
Attitude Complete extension
Engaging diameter Submentobregmatic
Possible positions Right mentoanterior (RMA)
Left mentoanterior (LMA)
Right mentoposterior (RMP)
Left mentoposterior (LMP)
6.
7. Face presentation can be primary or
secondary Primary face presentation Secondary face presentation
Multiparity Abnormal pelvic
configuration
Fetal anomalies-
Anencephaly
Meningocele
Dolichocephaly
Tumors in the neck-thyroid
enlargement, other tumors
Spasm of extensor muscles
of neck
Loops of cord around neck
Large baby
Polyhydraminos
Prematurity
8. ENGAGEMENT
Submentobregmatic diameter engages in left or right
oblique diameter
Vertical diameter between face and the biparietal
diameter > the vertical distance between the pelvic
brim and ischial spines
So the face is well below ischial spines when the bp
diameter crosses the brim
And the head is palpable per abdomen even after the
face has descended below the level of ischial spines
9. DESCENT
INCREASING EXTENSION- as the fetal
trunk descends, extension of head
increases
10. INTERNAL ROTATION- the mentum rotates
anteriorly toward the pubic symphsis through
45 degrees in mentoanterior, and 135 degrees
in mentoposterior. Rotation takes place at a
lower level than in vertex presentation
11. FLEXION
The chin hitches under the pubic symphysis
and the mouth, nose, glabella, forehead,
and occiput are born, in that order
12. RESTITUTION
Neck untwists toward the opposite side
EXTERNAL ROTATION
Shoulders rotate toward the pubic
symphysis
14. Palpation Auscutation
Umblical grip
Back anterior in
mentoanterior positions
Back posterior at the flank in
mentoposterior positions
Fetal heart heard clearly in
mentoanterior position
Toward the flank in
mentoposterior position
Second pelvic grip
Sinciput at higher level than
occiput
Groove felt between occiput
and back
Cephalic prominence on same
side as back
15.
16. chin, mouth, malar eminences, nose,
glabella felt
Mentum in anterior or posterior quadrant
17. Labor progresses normally in
mentoanterior positions since the engaging
diameter is similar to that in vertex
presentation
Majority of the mentoposterior position
also rotate anteriorly and deliver normally
25% may remain as mentoposterior or
rotate to direct posterior
19. Estimate weight of baby
Perform internal pelvimetry
Monitor
Uterine contractions
Descent of presenting part
Fetal heart rate
Cervical dilatation
Station of presenting part
rotation
Mentoanterior
If rotation is complete- normal or forceps
If no rotation- caesarean section
Mentoposterior
If rotates anterior- normal
If no rotation- caesarean section
Oxytocin augmentation
Only if baby weight average, pelvic configuration normal
20.
21. Caesarean section is required if
Fetus is large
Mentum does not rotate anteriourly 1 hour
after full dilatation
Fetal heart rate abnormalities occur
22. Brow- anterior fontanelles to supraorbital
ridges
In brow presentation all the structures
from the orbital ridges to the anterior
fontanelle are present at the pelvis
23. Most common
Prematurity
Multiparity
Cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD)
Others
Tumour of neck
Spasm of neck
Polyhyrdoamnios
24. Denominator – Frontum
Attitude – Partial extension
Engaging diameter –Vertico-mental(13.5)
Positions
LFA
LFP
RFA
RFP
VAGINAL DELIVERY NOT POSSIBLE (unless
the fetus is very small or premature or the
pelvis is very roomy)
25. Usually found early in labor
With good contractions, flexes to vertex or
extends to face presentation
If it persists in established labor, there is no
mechanism of labor or delivery
If undiagnosed, can lead to rupture of
uterus in multigravida
26. Maternal complications- premature rupture
of membranes, prolapse of cord, if
undiagnosed can lead to uterine rupture
Fetal complications- related to associated
anomalies, operative delivery and
obstructed labor
27. On abdominal examination, head feels
broader
Sinciput is higher than the occiput but not
so high as in face presentation
Diagnosis with certainty only on vaginal
examination
Anterior fontanelle, forehead, and orbital
ridges are felt
28. If diagnosed in early labor, the mother is
monitored closely and vaginal exam
repeated every 4-6 hours to see conversion
If diagnosed in active labor, cesarean is
indicated
Oxytocin augmentation not recommended
