What is it about?

Compared to normal pregnancy, growth restricted fetuses (FGR) exhibit different cardiac geometry and myocardial dysfunction with evidence of presence of some of these alterations after birth. Understanding the possible mechanisms of cardiac findings in FGR fetuses may provide insights on perinatal adaptation and failure of these adaptive responses in pathological pregnancies.
