  • Title: [Fetal growth in hypertensive women].
    Author: Conoscenti GC, Alberico S, Bogatti P, Maieron A, Fischer Tamaro L, Gigli C.
    Journal: Minerva Ginecol; 1991 Dec; 43(12):549-53. PubMed ID: 1819771.
    Abstract:
    The Authors examine the correlation between hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and fetal growth. The results of a study of 342 pregnancies, confirm a significant correlation between hypertension and fetal growth retardation. These findings, so evident in moderate and severe hypertension, have also been confirmed in cases of mild hypertension. The medical treatment also in the pregnancies with mild hypertension, and a larger utilisation of operative deliveries, determined a decrease in perinatal mortality and morbidity.
