In Utero Growth Disorders (IUGDs)

In Utero Growth Disorders, including Russell Silver Syndrome is a range of conditions where babies are born much smaller than other newborns. There are many reasons why this may occur, but there is often not an identifiable cause.

Because of the number of restricted growth conditions, sometimes it is difficult for a medical professional to give a diagnosis. In these circumstances, a general diagnosis of restricted growth may be given.
