• Fetal macrosomia increases the risk that your uterine muscles won't properly contract after you give birth (uterine atony). (sparrow.org)
• If you've had a prior C-section or major uterine surgery, fetal macrosomia increases the risk of uterine rupture during labor - a rare but serious complication in which the uterus tears open along the scar line from the C-section or other uterine surgery. (sparrow.org)
• An abnormally high level of amniotic fluid, polyhydramnios, alerts the clinician to possible fetal anomalies. (medscape.com)
• Fetal swallowing, which occurs physiologically, reduces the amount of fluid, and an absence of swallowing or a blockage of the fetus's gastrointestinal tract can lead to polyhydramnios. (medscape.com)

• Significant differences were found between fetal macrosomia and clinical characteristics such as body mass index, parity, advanced maternal age, and male fetal sex. (bvsalud.org)
• Antenatal risk factors are important in the prediction of macrosomia, but fetal and maternal outcome depends on labour management. (bvsalud.org)

• In this episode, we discuss the evidence for the best ways to measure amniotic fluid and diagnose oligohydramnios and polyhydramnios. (thinkingaboutobgyn.com)
• Abnormally low amniotic fluid volume is known as oligohydramnios, while abnormally high amniotic fluid volume is known as polyhydramnios . (berkowitzlawfirm.com)

Idiopathic2

• MATERIALS AND METHODS: Idiopathic polyhydramnios was studied with ultrasound (US) in 99 consecutive normal fetuses of nondiabetic women. (elsevierpure.com)
• 001). CONCLUSION: Idiopathic polyhydramnios is associated with large- forgestational-age fetuses and macrosomia independent of maternal diabetes. (elsevierpure.com)
