Abstrakt		Large-for-gestational-age newborns are defined as having a birth weight and/or birth length above the 90th percen-tile for gestational age and sex. Through epigenetic mech-anisms, the suboptimal intrauterine environment influences the phenotypic changes in the metabolic and endocrine pathways of the foetus. Excessive foetal growth leads to prenatal and postnatal complications, such as preterm birth, perinatal hypoxia, injuries, transient metabolic disorders, polycythaemia, and jaundice. In the long term, excessive foetal growth increases the risk of developing metabolic and cardiovascular diseases and disorders of the central nervous system.Aetiologically, the most important cause of macrosomia is gestational diabetes, which may remain unrecognised when it occurs after the 28th week of pregnancy since an active search for diabetes in pregnant women is performed before that time.
