Abstract:
Objective To study the interphase FISH of cells from aminotic fluid in the third trimester prospectively. Methods Amniotic fluid (5ml) was obtained in 32 pregnant women in the third trimester who underwent cordocentesis for karyotyping. FISH was performed on uncultured am niocytes and the results were compared with karyotypes. Results Abnormal aneuploid were identified in 6 cases among the 32 women. The FISH results were consistent with the karyotypes. Conclusions Interphase FISH in third-trimester amniocentesis can provide an accurate clinical diagnosis on common aneupoidies.
