Background: Maternal alcohol abuse during pregnancy can lead to fetal neurotoxicity and fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). Aims: To compare the clinical features and neurobehavioral profiles of children exposed to alcohol during pregnancy with controls. Methodology: Children exposed to alcohol in utero (n26) and 27-years age- and sex-matched controls were compared on FAS facial features, minor physical anomalies (MPAs), anthropometric measures, behavioral problems and intellectual functioning. Results: MPAs were more common in cases (p0.001). Among FAS facial features, only philtrum smoothness varied significantly between the groups (p0.001). Behavioral problems (on Childhood Behavior Check List) were more pronounced (p0.001) and intellectual functioning significantly poorer in cases (p0.001) compared to controls. Conclusions: Children prenatally exposed to alcohol manifest several neurobehavioral problems compared to controls. Underlying malnutrition may have altered some of the clinical findings.
