Chorionic Villus Sampling

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1988
To the Editor.— The study by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development on chorionic villus sampling omits one significant consideration. 1 Diagnostic information that indicates a genetic disorder places the affected fetus at high risk of an induced abortion. What is safe for the mother may portend ill for the unborn.

Chorionic villus sampling and amniocentesis

Current Opinion in Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2005
The advantages and disadvantages of common invasive methods for prenatal diagnosis are presented in light of new investigations.Several aspects of first-trimester chorionic villus sampling and mid-trimester amniocentesis remain controversial, especially fetal loss rate, feto-maternal complications, and the extension of both sampling methods to less ...

Transabdominal Chorionic Villus Sampling

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1988
EDITORIAL COMMENT: Chorion villus sampling is likely to replace genetic amniocentes'is in many patients mainly because the procedure can be performed so much earlier in pregnancy (8–12 weeks rather than 16–17 weeks) when the safety of termination of pregnancy, should this be required, is greater.

Transvaginal chorionic villus sampling

Prenatal Diagnosis, 1990
AbstractChorionic villus sampling (CVS) with either transcervical catheters or transabdominal needles is a widely‐accepted method for prenatal diagnosis. However, there exists a small subset of patients in whom sampling is difficult or impossible with either route because of individual anatomic variations.

Chorionic villus sampling

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1995
Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) has the great advantage over mid-trimester amniocentesis of producing early results. Moreover, rapid analytic techniques have significantly reduced the waiting time between sampling and diagnosis, whereas progress in recombinant DNA technology and human gene mapping has led to an increase in the range of conditions it ...

TRANSABDOMINAL CHORIONIC VILLUS SAMPLING

The Lancet, 1986
Transabdominal chorionic villus sampling, carried out with a fine-bore needle and cannula under ultrasound guidance, was as successful as transcervical aspiration but avoided the risks of bacterial contamination associated with the latter technique. The transabdominal procedure can be carried out under local anaesthesia, and multiple samples can be ...

Amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1991
Amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) remain the most commonly used invasive prenatal diagnostic procedures. Recent reports on early amniocentesis demonstrate its application to the prenatal detection of certain biochemical disorders. However, its role in the evaluation of open fetal defects of the neural tube or ventral wall is still under

CHORIONIC VILLUS SAMPLING

Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 1997
Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) has been used a successful and safe first-trimester prenatal diagnostic technique for over 12 years. Developed to avoid the medical and psychological complications of later prenatal diagnosis by amniocentesis, CVS rapidly has become a primary tool for the diagnosis of fetal cytogenetic, molecular, and biochemical ...

Amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1993
Amniocentesis performed at 16 to 18 weeks' gestation has been the gold standard approach for prenatal cytogenetic diagnosis. Over the past few years, large collaborative studies on chorionic villus sampling have confirmed the safety and efficacy of chorionic villus sampling as a viable alternative for women seeking prenatal diagnosis.

Chorionic Villus Sampling

The Nurse Practitioner, 1987
Chorionic villus sampling is a technique for prenatal genetic screening that has been widely publicized by the print and television media. Although not yet commonly available, women may seek additional information about the procedure from nurse practitioners.
