A study of fetal macrosomia

Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 1999
We describe the maternal characteristics in pregnancy with fetal macrosomia, fetal and maternal complications related to macrosomia, and the risk of impaired glucose tolerance. The study is based on a comparison of maternal and neonatal data in 956 cases of fetal macrosomia (birthweight > or =4000 g) in non-diabetic pregnancy with data in a control ...

Evaluation and Management of Fetal Macrosomia

Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 2021
Macrosomia results from abnormal fetal growth and can lead to serious consequences for the mother and fetus. In cases of suspected macrosomia, patients must be counseled carefully regarding a delivery plan, and Cesarean section should be considered when indicated.

Fetal Macrosomia

DeckerMed Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2019
Excessive fetal growth and increased birth weight are associated with significant maternal and neonatal morbidity and have become increasingly common given the global obesity epidemic.  Fetal macrosomia is traditionally defined in developed countries as fetal weight greater than 4,000 grams or 4,500 grams regardless of gestational age.

Fetal Macrosomia—Animal Models

Diabetes Care, 1980
Macrosomia is characteristic of the infant whose mother has undiagnosed diabetes mellitus during pregnancy or whose diabetes has been inadequately controlled. Animal models of diabetes have included effects of pancreatectomy or beta-cell destruction by chemical agents. Maternal effects have been variable as have been effects on the fetus.

Macrosomia: Maternal and Fetal Outcome

Asia-Oceania Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1994
AbstractThis retrospective case‐control study analyses the prevalence and outcome of macrosomia in a part of the underdeveloped world. Out of 6,093 deliveries at a large tertiary care centre, 234 (3.8%) were macrosomic. Maternal risk factors associated with the condition included age over 35, obesity, grand multiparity, postmaturity and impaired ...

Relationship of Glycosylated Hemoglobin, Fetal Macrosomia, and Birthweight Macrosomia

American Journal of Perinatology, 1994
Previous studies have shown that glycosylated hemoglobin (Hb A1C) once elevated correlated with fetal malformations, poor perinatal outcome, and macrosomia. To determine whether Hb A1C was related to fetal diabetic complications such as polyhydramnois, fetal macrosomia, and fat line detected on ultrasonographic evaluation, 66 diabetic patient, types I,

Fetal macrosomia

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1992
AbstractWhen macrosomia exists, shoulder dystocia is a pri‐mary obstetric concern. Current methods for estimating birth weight prior to delivery are imprecise, and macrosomia often cannot be predicted. Certain conditions or combinations of conditions should increase the index of suspicion for shouider dystocia.

Fetal macrosomia — maternal risks and fetal outcome

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1990
AbstractTwo hundred eighty‐four macrosomic babies of 4000 g or over at birth were compared with an equal number of appropriate weight term infants, to identify maternal risk factors and fetal outcome. Maternal obesity, grand multiparity, diabetes mellitus and post‐maturity were the major maternal risks.
