This position also may result in increased risk of fetal hypoxemia and less progress in cervical dilation. Placing the patient in a left lateral position may be the only corrective measure necessary for hyperstimulation and fetal distress. [glowm.com]

Uterine myomas are the most common pelvic masses associated with dystocia. They may obstruct the birth canal or cause malpresentation of the fetus. [glowm.com]

Prognosis
In the developing nations pelvimetry, preferably by CT scan (if available), still has a place to enable the obstetrician to make a decision about a vaginal delivery, but this prognosis is not particularly accurate, as different observers attach different [clinicalgate.com]
In the absence of fetopelvic disproportion, conservative management, consisting of support and close observation, and therapy with oxytocin augmentation both carry a good prognosis for vaginal delivery. 14 3. [powershow.com]
Prognosis: The prognosis of subsequent pregnancies depends on the cause for abnormal labor. For example, if it occurs from macrosomia, the next infant may not be macrosomic. [www1.cgmh.org.tw]
Encephaloceles, which carry a poor prognosis, are usually fragile and may rupture during delivery. Potentially viable conjoined twins require delivery by cesarean section. [glowm.com]
