In medicine, the forward displacement or tipping of an organ, particularly the uterus, from its normal position.
From Latin 'antrorsum' (forward) + Latin 'versio' (turning, displacement). A medical condition term created to describe abnormal organ positioning, used primarily in gynecology.
When a uterus tips forward abnormally, doctors call it antroversion—it's the opposite of retroversion (tipping backward), and these directional words help doctors pinpoint exactly what's positioning wrong.
