Mosaic tetrasomy 9p at amniocentesis can be associated with fetal ascites and hydrops fetalis. The mosaic level of tetrasomy 9p may decrease after long-term tissue culture in amniocytes in case of mosaic tetrasomy 9p.
Abnormal maternal serum biochemistry in the second trimester may be a distinctive prenatal feature in pregnancy associated with fetal chromosome 14q duplication.
Fetuses with a de novo 7q terminal deletion may be associated with a markedly elevated maternal serum hCG level and abnormal sonographic findings of intrauterine growth restriction, microcephaly, and congenital heart defects in the second trimester.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
