A New Stepwise Molecular Work-Up After Chorionic Villi Sampling in Women With an Early Pregnancy Loss [PDF]
Objective: To explore the use of a new molecular work-up based on the stepwise use of Quantitative Fluorescence PCR (QF-PCR) extended to eight chromosomes and single nucleotide polymorphism array (SNP-array) in chorionic villi obtained by chorionic villi

To guide or not to guide: A randomized study on the use of needle guide for chorionic villus sampling training [PDF]
Introduction Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is an invasive prenatal diagnostic procedure used to detect fetal genetic anomalies. CVS is increasingly replaced by noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT).

Chorionic Villi Sampling [PDF]
The cytogenetic findings were analysed in a series of 500 pregnancies in which chorionic villi sampling was performed. In all cases a direct method was used, karyotyping being successful in 481 cases (96.2%). The main indication for sampling was maternal age over 36 (412 cases; 82.4%).

Objective: We described a unique case of near-negative chromosome mosaicism in chorionic villi but complete monosomy X in amniotic fluid.Methods: Chorionic villus sampling and amniocentesis were performed separately in the first and second trimesters ...

Background Fetoplacental discrepancies occur in approximately 1–2% of analyzed prenatal cases. They are typically due to confined placental mosaicism, where an aberration is observed in the placental cells but not found in the fetal cells.

Trophoblast lineage-specific differentiation and associated alterations in preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction. [PDF]
The human placenta is a poorly-understood organ, but one that is critical for proper development and growth of the fetus in-utero. The epithelial cell type that contributes to primary placental functions is called "trophoblast," including two main ...

Examination and Sampling of Chorionic Villi for the Diagnosis of Beta-Thalassemia Major in the First Trimester of Pregnancy in Southwestern Iran [PDF]
Background & aim: Beta thalassemia is one of the most common hereditary diseases in Iran. The birth of a child with thalassemia causes many social and economic problems for parents and the health care system.

Until recently the in utero environment of pregnant women was considered sterile. Recent high-sensitivity molecular techniques and high-throughput sequencing lead to some evidence for a low-biomass microbiome associated with the healthy placenta.
