We identified nine SGA clinical phenotypes associated with different patterns of risk for adverse perinatal outcomes. Our results suggest that adding clinical characteristics to ultrasound results would improve risk stratification and decision-making for SGA fetuses. Future clinical trials on the control of fetuses with SGA should take into account, in addition to Doppler and estimated fetal weight, this clinical information.
