[Fetal macrosomia and the study of risk factors in maternal diabetes]
The authors report the results of a study performed in 142 women who gave birth to overgrown neonates. Among them, the incidence of diabetes was high: 7.75%. Older maternal age, maternal obesity and the former birth of large infants were also found to be risk factors for fetal overgrowth.
