The technique of transcervical chorionic villus sampling (TCVS) was studied in 155 cases for selected abortion in the first trimester of pregnancy, and 3 kinds of suction tube were compared. The ultrasonic mothod for the aspiration of chorionie villus sampling is more effective than the blind aspiration, giving a success rate of 99%. The modified suction tube with a stainless steel wire along-side as a supporter is simpler than the Portex's tube, giving a oneshot success rate of 85%. This shows that the TCVS is more satisfactory if the embryo is implanted into the posterior wall of the uterus. With the B-mode scanner, it gives the highest one-shot success rate and the amount of the obtained tissue is the greatest in the 7th and 8th weeks of gestation. Twenty cases were followed up for 3 to 7 days after the procedure before selective abortion. No complications occurred during and after the TCVS, indicating that this technique ia simple, safe and reliable.

Mother-Fetus ABO blood group incompatibility is one of the most common causes of hemolytic disease of newborns in China. To identify the blood group of the fetus in case of suspected mother-fetus blood group incompatibility in the first trimester of pregnancy, the author determined blood group substance (BGS) in 40 chorionic villi samples taken by the absorption-elution procedure during 6 to 12 weeks of gestation, with a simultaneous parental blood group determination as control. The BGS detected in those specimens were all in accordance with those of the blood groups of their coriesponding parents. Among the 40 samples of chorionic villi, 20 were redetermined, and the results were the same. This demonstrates the feasibility of the procedure to identify the fetal blood groups by the determination of BGS in the chorionic villi by transcervical aspiration. The study presents, apparently, a new and simple diagnostic method for detecting mother-fetus blood incompatibility in early pregnancy, thas giviing a prospectively preventive study on those types of blood group incompatibility.
