In a case of prolonged labour, fetal occiput fails to spontaneously rotate anteriorly and caused persistent occiput posterior presentation. The recommended management is:

When the fetal occiput fails to spontaneously rotate anteriorly, a persistent occiput posterior presentation results in a more prolonged and painful labor. Manual, vacuum, or forceps rotation is usually necessary but increases the likelihood of maternal and fetal injuries. Regional anesthesia can be used to provide perineal analgesia and pelvic relaxation, allowing manual or forceps rotation followed by forceps delivery.
