German term or phrase: Proth. EP
From a report concerning a 23 y/o female.

"Diagnose: 2 Grav , 1 Para
40+3 SSW
Proth. EP
Einstellungsanomalie
V.a. re. Mißverhältnis

Therapie: Sec. Sectio caearea "

No further relevant context.

Any further suggestions besides "endoprosthesis"? A prosthesis doesn't really seem to fit the context, especially for such a young patient.

Thanks in advance for your help.
