Cost-effectiveness of cytogenetic evaluation of products of conception by chorionic villus sampling in recurrent miscarriage.

abstract：:Multiple placental passes during chorionic villus sampling (CVS) increase the risk of fetal loss; however, specific factors that predispose to repeat aspiration have not been delineated.
