Chorionic villus sampling
Abstract
Chorionic villus sampling in the first trimester of pregnancy has the potential to become a major tool in the prenatal diagnosis and therapy of genetic disorders. Villus samples can be used for cytogenetic and biochemical studies as well as DNA analysis. However, little is known about the effects of chorionic villus sampling on a continuing pregnancy, or the long-term effects on the subsequently delivered infants. Despite these limitations, chorionic villus sampling appears to be a major breakthrough in prenatal diagnosis.
