OC185: The rate and risk factors for fetal loss (FL) following Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS)

HKCOG Guidelines Guidelines for Amniocentesis and Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS)

Fetal loss rate after chorionic villus sampling and amniocentesis: an 11-year national registry study.

OBJECTIVE To assess the fetal loss rate following amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS). METHODS This was a national registry-based cohort study, including all singleton pregnant women who had an amniocentesis (n = 32 852) or CVS (n = 31 355) in Denmark between 1996 and 2006. Personal registration numbers of women having had an amniocentesis or a CVS were retrieved from the Danish...

I-41: Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS): An Invasive Method for Prenatal Diagnosis

Background: Chorionic villus sampling(CVS) has a major role in prenatal diagnosis . It is an invasive diagnostic method in completion of primary prenatal screenings. This article is a report of our 8 years experience of CVS in Mashhad. Materials and Methods: We have done 1511 cases of invasive diagnostic procedure including 723 CVS which were included in our study and also 788 cases of amniocen...

Chorionic villus sampling

Chorionic villus sampling has gained importance as a tool for early cytogenetic diagnosis with a shift toward first trimester screening. First trimester screening using nuchal translucency and biomarkers is effective for screening. Chorionic villus sampling generally is performed at 10-12 weeks by either the transcervical or transabdominal approach. There are two methods of analysis; the direct...

Chorionic Villus Sampling

Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is a test used for prenatal diagnosis [5]. Safe to perform at an earlier stage in pregnancy [6] than amniocentesis, CVS is another invasive prenatal diagnostic test that can be performed as early as ten weeks after the woman?s last menstrual cycle. While this test does carry some risks, it is generally very effective at predicting heritable diseases during or soo...
