Abstract:
Since it has been proposed that chorionic villus sampling could be an etiology of limb reduction defect, the relation between limb defect and chorionic villus sampling remains controversial. We experienced a case of limb reduction defect after chorionic villus sampling at 9 gestational weeks and report the case with brief review of literature.
