- Abstract
- Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is one of the most common and complex diseases and it is associated with increased perinatal mortality and morbidity. FGR influences the long-term health of neonates and their offspring. The aim of obstetric management is to identify growth-restricted fetuses at risk of severe intrauterine hypoxia, to monitor their health and to deliver when the adverse outcome is imminent. This review aims to investigate the new aspects of FGR including the diagnosis, antenatal surveillance, and clinical management.
