Cystic fibrosis prenatal diagnosis: confirmation of an equivocal microvillar enzyme result by direct analysis of the common gene mutation.

abstract：:Nine hundred and thirty-six prenatal chromosomal analyses were performed by four cytogenetic centres after ultrasound diagnosis of fetal abnormalities, amniotic fluid disorders, fetal growth retardation, and fetal or placental abnormalities. During the same period, 6515 fetal karyotypes were analysed because of matern...
