Small for gestational age (SGA) and fetal growth restriction (FGR)

A fetus is considered to be small for gestational age (SGA) when its size falls below a predefined threshold for its gestational age. The most common definition of SGA is estimated fetal weight (EFW) or abdominal circumference (AC) below the 10th percentile of given reference ranges.
