In anatomy and medicine, a forward tilting or bending of an organ or body part from its normal position.
From Latin 'ante' (before) + 'versio' (turning, from 'vertere' meaning to turn). This medical term describes a structural condition where something is turned forward or bent in the anterior direction.
Doctors use 'anteversion' especially when describing uterine tilt or femoral angle—it's a measurable anatomical variation that can matter for childbirth, walking patterns, or determining if someone needs corrective procedures.
