RESUMEN
El síndrome alcohólico fetal (SAF) se define como un defecto congénito permanente causado por el consumo excesivo de alcohol materno durante el embarazo. Se caracteriza por un crecimiento disminuido, una alteración del sistema nervioso central y un conjunto de alteraciones faciales menores. La incidencia estimada es de 0,33-2,2/1.000 recién nacidos vivos en Estados Unidos. Hasta los años noventa no hubo una serie de criterios unificados y objetivos para llegar al diagnóstico de SAF. Se presenta el caso clínico de un niño de 5 años y 10 meses con este síndrome. El objetivo de este artículo es revisar los criterios diagnósticos del SAF y su actualización
ABSTRACT
Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) is defined as a permanent birth defect syndrome caused by maternal alcohol abuse during pregnancy. It is characterized by growth deficiency, central nervous system (CNS) dysfunction and minor facial anomalies. The incidence in the USA has been estimated to be between 0.33 and 2.2 per 1000 live births. Until the 90’s, there were no objective, standardized criteria for the diagnosis of FAS. We report the case of a boy aged 5 years and 10 months who has been diagnosed as having this syndrome. The aim of this article is to review and update the criteria for the diagnosis of FAS
