Situs Inversus Totalis: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Situs Inversus Totalis (SIT) is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by the complete mirror‐image transposition of the thoracoabdominal viscera. Although typically it has a favorable prognosis, SIT can be associated with ciliopathy‐related disorders, most notably Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD).

Direct to consumer testing in reproductive contexts--should health professionals be concerned? [PDF]
Direct to consumer genetic testing offered via the Internet has been available for over a decade. Initially most tests of this type were offered without the input of the consumer's own health professional.

False negative NIPT results: Risk figures for chromosomes 13,18 and 21 based on chorionic villi results in 5967 cases and literature review [PDF]
Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) demonstrated a small chance for a false negative result. Since the "fetal" DNA in maternal blood originates from the cytotrophoblast of chorionic villi (CV), some false negative results will have a biological origin ...
