Intrauterine growth restriction associated with excessively long umbilical cord: a case report and literature review.

We present a 37-week female baby, known with intrauterine growth restriction since 25 weeks of pregnancy, born with a placenta with an excessive long umbilical cord (ELUC), without any other abnormalities.
