Macrosomia: Maternal and Fetal Outcome
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 ...

[Predictive factors of fetal macrosomia].
Fetal macrosomia is a condition which may increase the risk of mechanical and/or dynamic problems for the parturient. In the past, we have demonstrated that in more than half of the cases it is not possible to exclude a contribution of maternal pathology to the determination of fetal-macrosomia. The aim of this work is to verify whether our more recent

The test accuracy of antenatal ultrasound definitions of fetal macrosomia to predict birth injury: A systematic review [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: To determine which ultrasound measurement for predicted fetal macrosomia most accurately predicts adverse delivery and neonatal outcomes. STUDY DESIGN: Four biomedical databases searched for studies published after 1966.

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.

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—Animal Models
Diabetes Care, 1980Macrosomia 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.

Relationship of Glycosylated Hemoglobin, Fetal Macrosomia, and Birthweight Macrosomia
American Journal of Perinatology, 1994Previous 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 — maternal risks and fetal outcome
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1990AbstractTwo 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.

Fetal Macrosomia: Etiologic Factors
Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2000Fetal growth can be considered the outcome of an interaction between the genetic cause of growth and constraints provided by limitations on substrate availability (selected amino acids, free fatty acids, and mainly glucose). It should be noted that the majority of large infants are constitutionally large and do not require special intervention, which ...
