If after the birth of the head, the essential requirements of the correct genital mechanism are present on the face, that is, the largest dimensions of the torso (shoulders) coincide with the largest dimensions of the genital canal, there is also sufficient expelling activity, natural or artificial, and the birth still does not stop, then all natural on the assumption of the existence of a spatial inconsistency between the birth canal and the fetus. The fruit in such cases dies pretty soon and therefore the fruit-destructive operation in one or another form is the most expedient medical aid.
