Self-Amputation of the Extra Digit in a Fetus with Polydactyly: First Ultrasound Demonstration.

Abstract:

:We herein report the first ultrasound evidence of the self-amputation of an extra digit in case of fetal polydactyly. The prenatal evidence of fetal polydactyly is not always followed by postnatal confirmation. This is not always due to ultrasound misdiagnosis, but often to an in utero self-amputation phenomenon. We demonstrate that there is the detachment of part of the digit, leading to the evidence of a neonatal bump on the site of the prenatal extra digit. This demonstration has been possible by the direct visualization of the remnant by ultrasound.

  • Detection of DeltaF508del using quantitative real-time PCR, comparison of the results obtained by fluorescent PCR.

    abstract:OBJECTIVE:Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common autosomal recessive genetic disorder in the Caucasian population. The molecular diagnosis is difficult since there are about 1,000 mutations in the CF transmembrane regulator gene. The DeltaF508del is the cause of the CF in 64% of the cases in Hungary. Our aim was to co...
