Prenatal Exome Sequencing Identifies Dual Maternal‐Fetal Diagnosis of HbF Mission Bay, a Novel HBG2 Variant Associated With Methemoglobinemia, Hypoxia and Hemolytic Anemia

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prenatal exome sequencing (ES) can establish rare genetic diagnoses in a fetus but may also lead to occult genetic diagnosis in a biological parent. We present a case of dual fetal and maternal diagnosis by prenatal ES, in a fetus with unexplained anemia and in a pregnant patient with sickle cell disease (SCD) and recurrent unexplained hypoxia.

Hemophilia A: An Ideal Disease for Prenatal Therapy

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemophilia A (HA) is the most common inherited coagulation defect. Current state‐of‐the‐art treatment consists of frequent administration of prophylactic infusions of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) protein or bispecific antibodies that replace the cofactor function of FVIIIa to maintain hemostasis. However, these treatments are far from ideal,

A Prospective Evaluation of the Diagnostic Utility for Low‐Coverage Genome Sequencing in Prenatal Samples: A Comparison With Chromosomal Microarray Analysis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of LC‐GS in detecting clinically relevant chromosomal abnormalities in comparison with conventional CMA within a prenatal context. Methods We conducted a prospective study involving 200 amniotic fluid samples.

Global Delivery of Foetal Sequencing: Do We Need Some Standardisation?

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The development of sequencing technologies has resulted in rapid expansion in the testing available for foetuses with structural anomalies to diagnose monogenic disorders. To understand the variability in how foetal sequencing services are delivered, we developed a survey that focussed on the scope of testing, any parallel testing ...
