Brow presentation

Fetal position in which the brow or face of the infant comes first during labor, making vaginal delivery almost impossible. Cesarean section may be needed if the presentation cannot be altered.


Occasionally, a rare type of abnormal fetal positioning called “brow presentation” can occur, where the head of the fetus is slightly bent backward and the brow rests against the mother’s cervix. If this presentation persists throughout labor, vaginal delivery becomes unfeasible, and a caesarean section becomes necessary for the safe delivery of the baby.


A presentation where the brow is positioned at the opening of the womb.
