2006 
so strong (r = 0.62, p < 0.05). The mean neonatal abdominal circumference was 34.71 centimeters and also did not correlate well with AC estimated with USG (r = 0.54, p < 0.05). The mean neonatal head circumference was 36.19 centimeters and did not correlate with HC (r = 0.36, NS). 11 patients already had Cesarean section, 14 patients presented gestational diabetes, 3 – pregestational diabetes, 4 – pregnancy induced hypertension, 6 – breech presentation. Conclusion: Macrosomia as an indication for Cesarean section is quite often overdiagnosed and depends not only on objective estimation with USG scan, but on human factor and obstetric history.
