Presentation of fetus.
antigen presentation the hypothesis that macrophages not only ingest and process antigen, refining and complexing it with SRNA, but also present it in concentrated form at their surfaces to lymphocytes, thus inducing an immune response by the lymphocytes.
breech presentation presentation of the fetal buttocks or feet in labor; the feet may be alongside the buttocks (complete breech p.); the legs may be extended against the trunk and the feet lying against the face (frank breech p.); or one or both feet or knees may be prolapsed into the maternal vagina (incomplete breech p.) .

funis presentation presentation of the umbilical cord in labor.
placental presentation placenta previa.
shoulder presentation presentation of the fetal shoulder in labor; see oblique lie and transverse lie.
transverse presentation see under lie.

funic presentation presentation of the umbilical cord in labor.
placental presentation placenta praevia.

presentation
lie; the relationship of the long axis of the fetus to that of the dam. In foals and ruminants the normal presentation of a fetus during parturition is with the forelimbs extended forward so that the hooves are presented first, followed by the head between the forearms, followed by the trunk, abdomen and lastly the hindlimbs extended backward, i.e. anterior presentation.
In piglets the usual presentation is the nose first followed by the shoulders with the forelimbs beside the trunk, followed by the hindlimbs extended backward. The nose of puppies and kittens is presented first with the front paws forward under the neck and chin.
anterior presentation
presentation of the front feet and limbs followed by the fetal head in labor.
breech presentation
presentation of the fetal buttocks and tail in labor.
funic presentation
presentation of the umbilical cord in labor.
poll presentation
the fetus is presented with the forelimbs retained and the neck flexed so that the poll is presented in the cervix.
posterior presentation
the hindfeet are presented followed by the hindlimbs and hindquarters and tail; a normal variation in dogs and pigs.
transverse presentation
at birth the fetus is presented at the pelvic inlet with its long axis running across the long axis of the pelvic canal in the dorsotransverse position. It is the back of the fetus that can be palpated. There are no fetal parts with which to effect a correction.

Patient discussion about presentation.
Q. Iam a bipolar and presently on tegretol medication.I found this to be the best way to get my doubt clarified. I am a bipolar and presently on tegretol medication. My doctor frequently changes the meds and he has tried variety of medicines before prescribing tegretol. He changes the meds every time when I visit him for routine check-up. I am bit confused and obviously cannot question my doctor as I repose faith and confidence in him. I found this to be the best way to get my doubt clarified.
A. Are you being treated by your GP? I would suggest if you are having trouble finding the right combinations it might be a good time to ask to be referred to a Psychaitrist. GP's will do their best but like anything specialized they only have a certain amount of knowledge and a specialist in the field could be more help. I also think that other treatments along with The medications like theropy and group theropy, excercise, good diet, plenty of sleep etc helps a lot too... Try to be patient it is a process to get everything in place that will work the best for you... everyone is different and the .mmedications and treatments that work for one may not work for another...
Q. What are the presenting signs of ALS? Are the upper or lower extremeties affected initialilly?
A. The most common presenting sign of ALS is asymmetric limb weakness, usually starting with the hands (problems with pinching, writing, holding things etc.) shoulders (lifting arms above head etc.) or legs (problems walking).
Other presenting signs may be problems with speaking or swallowing, although these are less common.
