Publisher's Synopsis
Fetal growth restriction is possibly the commonest of the great obstetric syndromes. Small fetuses and newborns have a higher risk of intrauterine fetal death and poorer perinatal outcome, and suffer fetal programming and remodeling in different organ systems, which may decrease life expectancy and quality of life. This special issue deals with all of the current relevant topics and challenges concerning the management of fetal growth restriction, and contains several updated reviews about prevention, management and postnatal consequences, as well as original papers that provide new insights into the pathophysiology and clinical management of this syndrome.
