Array CGH in Fetal Medicine Diagnosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
About 2% to 5% of live births have at least one identifiable congenital anomaly at birth (Kalter and Warkany, 1983), ranging from mild to severe abnormalities that compromise the survival. Congenital malformations have been showing increasing importance as a cause of suffering and harm to health of the population, accounting for a large percentage of perinatal morbidity and mortality (De Galan-Roosen et al., 1998, Rosano et al., 2000, Cornel, 2000).

P-243: Prenatal Diagnosis Using Array CGH: Case Presentation
Background: Karyotype analysis has been the standard and reliable procedure for prenatal cytogenetic diagnosis since the 1970s. However, the major limitation remains requirement for cell culture, resulting in a delay of as much as 14 days to get the test results.CGH array technology has proven to be useful in detecting causative genomic imbalances or genetic mutations in as many as 15% of child...
متن کاملI-40: Non Invasive Prenatal Genetic Diagnosis;Current Status and The Future
Discovery of cell free fetal DNA in 1997 has deeply changed the outlook of prenatal diagnosis approaches as most of the clinically established screening tests are not sensitive/specific enough while the current practical diagnostic tests are also invasive in their nature. The most common prenatal screening test is routinely practiced for the diagnosis of Down syndrome (DS) which includes a 10% ...

متن کاملMicroarray Technology for the Diagnosis of Fetal Chromosomal Aberrations: Which Platform Should We Use?
The advantage of microarray (array) over conventional karyotype for the diagnosis of fetal pathogenic chromosomal anomalies has prompted the use of microarrays in prenatal diagnostics. In this review we compare the performance of different array platforms (BAC, oligonucleotide CGH, SNP) and designs (targeted, whole genome, whole genome, and targeted, custom) and discuss their advantages and dis...
متن کاملI-45: FISH and Array CGH for PGD of Cancer
We developed several FISH approaches to enable preimplantation genetic diagnosis of cancer predisposition syndromes. An overview of the applications and the results of those PGDs will be provided. In addition we developed several novel tools to genome wide screen for CNVs and SNPs in single cells. Those technologies are now being applied for polar body, blastomere and blastocyst screening for c...
متن کاملGenomic imbalances detected through array CGH in fetuses with holoprosencephaly.
OBJECTIVE Holoprosencephaly (HPE) is heterogeneous in pathogenesis, integrating genetic susceptibility with the influence of environmental factors. Submicroscopic aberrations may contribute to the etiology of HPE. Our aim was to report the molecular analysis of 4 fetuses with HPE and normal metaphase karyotype. METHOD A whole genome BAC-array based Comparative Genomic Hybridization (array CGH...
