Acceptability of chorionic villi sampling for prenatal diagnosis

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1986
The factors that influence women in choosing between first-trimester chorionic villi sampling and second-trimester amniocentesis for prenatal diagnosis were investigated. Five hundred twenty women of advanced maternal age who had previously undergone prenatal diagnosis by amniocentesis and were delivered of a normal infant were requested to complete a ...

Prenatal diagnosis of genetic disease by chorionic villi sampling

Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1986
Chorionic villi sampling at week 9–11 of gestation is increasingly applied as a new method in prenatal diagnosis of genetic disorders. Cytogenetical, biochemical or recombinant DNA methods have been used successfully in more than 6000 pregnancies at risk.

Emotional responses of pregnant women to chorionic villi sampling or amniocentesis

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1987
Seventy-four "high-risk" pregnant women interested in participating in a clinical trial comparing chorionic villi sampling and amniocentesis were initially assessed on five background measures and for anxiety, depression, hostility, and concern about abortion.

First trimester chorionic villi sampling and direct chromosome preparations

Clinical Genetics, 1986
Chorionic villi sampling was performed on 52 patients prior to elective termination of their pregnancies. Villi were obtained in 42, and direct chromosome preparations were successful in 41 of them. The use of a mixture of 0.075 M potassium chloride and 1% sodium citrate in the ratio of 2:1 for hypotonic treatment and 40% acetic acid for cell dispersal

Fetal mortality at the time of chorionic villi sampling

Human Genetics, 1984
To estimate the background fetal loss rates among women who might be candidates for chorionic villi sampling (CVS) for prenatal diagnosis, we examined the frequency of spontaneous abortion and of non-viable fetuses in two groups of women thought to be pregnant at 8-12 weeks' gestation.

The role of transvaginal sonography in chorionic villi sampling

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, 1990
AbstractVaginosonography has the potential of improving not only accurate diagnosis preceeding chorionic villus sampling but also the sampling procedure itself. The vaginosonographic diagnostic landmarks of early pregnancies are the contact area between the amnion and the chorion, the insertion of the umbilical cord, the yolk sac and the decidua ...
