✦ Synopsis

Fetal weight in utero was estimated sonographically within one week of delivery in 70 live-born fetuses of diabetic gravidas. The best estimates of weight were obtained with formulas dependent on biparietal diameter, abdominal circumference, and femur diaphysis length, and with formulas using the two variables of femur diaphysis length and abdominal circumference. Use of a special formula for the fetus of a diabetic mother was not of additional benefit. Acceptable weight estimates for the macrosomic diabetic fetus were not obtained.

It has been reported that the congenital anomalies frequently observed in offspring of diabetic women may be predicted by first-trimester ultrasound findings that reveal diminution in growth of the embryo/fetus. The aim of the current study was to examine the relationship between early growth delay
