What is Fetal Skull: Significance in Labour about?

1. The fetal skull is composed of bones that are incompletely ossified at birth, allowing the skull to mold and compress during labor. 2. The attitude and diameters of the fetal skull influence the progression of labor - complete flexion results in normal labor while deflexion or extension can prolong labor. 3. Partial extension of the fetal skull, as in brow presentation, results in a long engaging diameter that often obstructs labor requiring cesarean section.
