What is another word for malpresentation?
Pronunciation: [mˌalpɹˌɛzəntˈe͡ɪʃən] (IPA) 
Malpresentation refers to the abnormal positioning of the fetus in the uterus during childbirth. It can cause difficulties during delivery and increase the risk of complications. There are several synonyms for this term, including abnormal presentation, fetal malposition, and malpositioned fetus. Other similar terms include breech presentation, cephalic malposition, and transverse lie. These conditions can be identified through prenatal ultrasound scans and can often be corrected through certain techniques such as external cephalic version or by performing a cesarean section. It is important to detect and address malpresentation early on in pregnancy to ensure both the safety of the mother and child during the delivery process.
