Abstract:
We report a case of non-invasive prenatal diagnosis of fetal ectodermal dysplasia caused by EDA gene mutations. The pregnant woman underwent prenatal diagnosis at 11 gestational weeks because of a childbearing history of ectodermal dysplasia. Cell-free DNA barcode-enabled single-molecule test (cfBEST) was used to detect the ectodermal dysplasia gene mutation, and chorionic villus sampling was also performed. The cfBEST results showed that the genotype of maternal EDA gene c.340C> T(p.Gln114*) was heterozygous, while the genotype of fetal EDA was normal wild-type (C/C), which were consistent with the results of villus sampling, suggesting that cfBEST can be used for non-invasive prenatal diagnosis of ectodermal dysplasia caused by EDA gene mutation.
