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 ...

Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by variants in SPTA1, SPTB, and EPB41. These weaken horizontal interactions in the erythrocyte cytoskeleton, causing membrane fragmentation and splenic sequestration. It will readily cause fetal anemia and often hydrops fetalis. Prenatal diagnosis requires first ruling out

Yield of Whole Genome Sequencing for Pathogenic Single Nucleotide Variants in Congenital Heart Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic yield of pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) single nucleotide variants (SNVs) using whole genome sequencing (WGS) in congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods A systematic search of three databases (2000–2024) was conducted, and two reviewers independently ...

The Expanding Role of Gene Sequencing in Shaping Fetal Therapies: Clinical and Ethical Considerations

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In utero interventions are transformative in addressing genetic and anatomic conditions during fetal development. Next generation sequencing enables early genetic testing, playing a pivotal role in prenatal decision‐making by supporting risk stratification, precise and timely diagnosis, which directly informs eligibility for fetal surgical and

Diagnostic Value of Exome Sequencing in Isolated Polyhydramnios

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic yield of exome sequencing (ES) in isolated polyhydramnios. Methods This retrospective study included 40 cases of isolated polyhydramnios. All patients underwent screening for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA).

Uncovering the Genetic Landscape of Spinal Dysraphism: A Retrospective Analysis of 150 Fetal Cases

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Spinal dysraphism (SD) results from incomplete neural tube closure and encompasses a heterogeneous group of congenital anomalies with genetic and environmental etiologies. Although genetic contributions are recognized, causative variants remain insufficiently defined, and the clinical implications of extended genetic testing on ...

Clinical Utility of Nuchal Translucency Measurement in First‐Trimester Ultrasound Screening in a Setting With First‐Tier NIPT for Aneuploidy Screening

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the additional clinical value of nuchal translucency (NT) measurement at the first‐trimester anomaly scan (FTAS) in a setting with first‐tier non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Method This nationwide prospective cohort study, part of the IMITAS study on FTAS implementation, included all pregnancies with increased NT

Moderate Diagnostic Yield of Exome Sequencing in Fetal Growth Restriction: Retrospective Insights

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether invasive genetic testing should be systematically proposed in cases of FGR. Methods Descriptive retrospective study of 159 FGR cases (defined by an estimated fetal growth < 3rd percentile, regardless of Doppler findings) managed at the Toulouse Fetal Medicine Center (TFMC) during 2022–2023.

Gene List Selection Matters: Missed Diagnoses in Prenatal Exome Sequencing—PanelApp R21 and HPO‐Driven Versus OMIM‐Based Gene Lists

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate whether the causative variants found upon clinical exome sequencing in fetuses affected with selected structural anomalies would also be detected if PanelApp‐R21 or Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO)‐driven gene selection terms were applied instead.
