Features of Symmetrical and Asymmetrical IUGR Foetuses Symmetrical Asymmetrical
Incidence 20% 80%
Onset Early, during cellular hyperplasia
Late, during cellular hypertrophy
Size Uniformly small Head larger than abdomen
Ponderal IndexBirth weight/Crown-heel length3
Normal Low
HC:AC & FL:AC ratios Normal Elevated
Etiology Genetic disease or infection (TORCH), involving all organs including headIntrinsic to foetus
Chronic placental insufficiency Extrinsic to foetus
Total cell number Less Normal
Cell size Normal Smaller
Neonatal course Complicated with poor prognosis
Usually uncomplicated having good prognosis

Predictive Factors1. Presence of high-risk factors (obstetric, medical)
2. Low level of 1st trimester PAPP-1 value
3. Abnormal uterine artery Doppler value (notching) at 20-24 weeks of pregnancy
4. Foetal echogenic bowel based on USG

Pathophysiology• Due to,
Reduced availability of nutrients, or Reduced transfer by placenta to foetus, or Reduced utilisation by the fetus.
• ↓ Brain cell size (Asymmetric-SGA) and cell number (Symmetric-SGA)
• ↓ Liver glycogen
• Oligohydramnios Due to ↓ renal and pulmonary contribution

Morphology• Old man look
Weight deficit: 600g below the minimum in percentile standard. Length unaffected.
HC relatively larger than body in asymmetric variety
Dry and wrinkled skin due to less SC fat Scaphoid abdomen, thin meconium, stained vernix caseosa
and thin umbilical cord Pinna: Cartilaginous ridges Plantar creases: Well defined
• Baby is alert, active and having a normal cry. Eyes are open.
• Reflexes: Normal, including Moro-reflex

Mode of Delivery• Since the last delivery was LSCS and there is history of decrease
contraction which was cause of caesarean section, therefore elective LSCS will be done in this case to prevent any complication.
• Immediate care of baby after birth is taken care of.
