Abstract

[Extract] The terms intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and small for gestational age (SGA) are frequently encountered in the neonatal population. It is the second cause of perinatal mortality after prematurity (Mandruzzato et al., 2008), estimated to be a contributing factor in 52% of stillbirths.

Foetal growth restriction is a multifactoral condition that may be foetal, maternal, genetic or environmental in origin, (See Table 1 & Fig. 2).
