Syracuse Medical Malpractice Lawyers Bottar Law, PLLC HomeAsynclitism
Asynclitism is a term used to describe when a baby's head is tipped toward one shoulder. This somewhat unusual presentation can present a problem during the second stage of labor because an asynclitic head usually has a harder time passing through the birth canal and can cause prolonged labor. Forceps may be used to correct the baby's presentation.
The most common sign of asynclitism during labor is one-sided hip pain in the mother. Upon delivery, a common sign of asynclitism is a molded or misshapen infant head. A caput may also be present, which may resolve and reveal a hematoma..
