Abstract
Small-for-gestational-age fetuses are frequently detected in general o bstetric practice. Despite remarkable improvements in our understandin g and management of this group of conditions over the past 20 years, m uch more research is required. During the year reviewed in this articl e, advances were reported in identification, association/causation, re lationship to maternal smoking, fetal endocrinology, clinical investig ation and management, and these are discussed in turn.
