Fetal overgrowth. Diabetic versus nondiabetic.
Term, large for gestational aged newborns were retrospectively evaluated. The fetal parameter of relative growth, was measured using the ratio of fetal length to abdominal circumference (FL/AC). This measurement was not different between diabetic and nondiabetic gravidas who delivered LGA infants when ultrasound was obtained within 1 week of delivery.
