Background.
Macrosomia is defined as an infant’s birth weight of more than 4000 g at term which is to different maternal and neonatal complications.
Several studies have been done on factors influencing risk of macrosomia, but there is lack of information and study in our country regarding macrosomia complications.
Objective.
The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of macrosomia and its complications.
Method.
A cohort study was conducted from 2007 to 2011 at Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, Razi Hospital in Ahvaz city, Iran.
All pregnant mothers who were referred to Obstetrics and Gynecology Department for delivery were included in this study.
The total number of 201,102 pregnant mothers was recruited and divided into case and control groups after delivery (macrosomia (case) and normal weight infants (control) groups).
Results.
Out of total deliveries (201,102), there were 1800 macrosomia, (9%).
Gestational diabetes, maternal obesity (BMI), maternal aged and positive history of previous macrosomia were the major risk factors for macrosomia which were compared with the normal weight infant groups (P<0.001 for all parameters).
Neonatal complications associated with macrosomia included humerus—clavicle fractures and arm—brachial plexus injury which were significant compared to the control group (P<0.001 for all parameters).
Conclusion.
The macrosomia is potentially dangerous for the mother and the neonate.
It is important to recognize the suspected fetal macrosomia to prevent its risk factors and complications.
There is a need to provide all delivery facilities and care services to prevent and reduce the maternal and neonatal macrosomia complications.
