Resumen

Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica de los últimos 10 años por medio del MED-LINE, de los tópicos más relevantes del retardo de crecimiento intrauterino. Se definen el concepto y la incidencia de acuerdo al consenso internacional. Posteriormente, se revisan los principales aspectos relacionados con la epidemiología del RCIU a la luz de la literatura actual. Se presenta de manera sucinta la fisiopatología de la entidad y su clasificación ecográfica en retardo simétrico y asimétrico. Los recientes avances en el diagnóstico del RCIU, son divididos en métodos clínicos y paraclínicos los cuales son discutidos en su eficiencia para identificar la entidad. En el aspecto imagenológico, se mencionan los parámetros ecográficos clásicos y de reciente desarrollo que la literatura refiere como útiles en el diagnóstico y se discute la información disponible referente a la aplicacion del doppler en éstos casos. Por último, se discute el manejo de los fetos ya identificados y la manera de vigilarlos y abordarlos terapéuticamente.
