| podalic version |
To convert a malpresentation, a hand is inserted into the vagina and uterus and, by manipulation on the abdomen with one hand and by internal manipulation with the other, a foot is grasped and drawn down, so that the presentation is converted to a breech. A bipolar podalic version is performed similarly with only two fingers in the uterus and the other hand on the abdomen.
