[Evaluation of fetal maturity at birth].
It is very important to evaluate the degree of maturity of a new-born infant in order: - to appreciate the chronological age when the date of the last period is unknown or doubtful, - to compare the degree of maturation with the weight and size of the infant, in regard of estimating the intra-uterine growth and detecting early a lateness or advance of this growth.
