    AbstractSix children affected by the fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) are described. Their ages vary from newborn to 15 years. All had multigravid, alcoholic mothers. All have the facial features of the FAS, and prenatal and postnatal growth retardation. Four have additional congenital anomalies, and at least four are mentally retarded. These children are described to increase awareness of the FAS in Australia, whose population has a high and changing pattern of alcohol consumption.
