Array comparative genomic hybridization and flow cytometry analysis of spontaneous abortions and mors in utero samples [PDF]
Background: It is estimated that 10-15% of all clinically recognised pregnancies result in a spontaneous abortion or miscarriage. Previous studies have indicated that in up to 50% of first trimester miscarriages, chromosomal abnormalities can be ...
