Abstract

Fetal malpresentation, including persistent occipitoposterior position, is a major cause of cesarean section. Maternal outcomes are often worse are more common than with fetal occiput anterior positions. To identify maternal risk factors associated with persistent occiput posterior position at delivery. Calculations were made to predict the implementation of the fetal rotation.
