There have been tremendous advances in the ability to screen for the "odds" of having a genetic disorder (both mendelian and chromosomal). With microarray analyses on fetal tissue now showing a minimum risk for any pregnancy being at least 1 in 150 and ultimately greater than 1%, it is thought that all patients, regardless of age, should be offered chorionic villus sampling/amniocentesis and microarray analysis. As sequencing techniques replace other laboratory methods, the only question will be whether these tests are performed on villi, amniotic fluid cells, or maternal blood.
在筛查患遗传性疾病(孟德尔遗传病和染色体病)“几率”的能力方面已经取得了巨大进展。现在对胎儿组织进行的微阵列分析表明,任何妊娠的最低风险至少为1/150,最终超过1%,因此人们认为,所有患者,无论年龄大小,都应接受绒毛取样/羊膜穿刺术和微阵列分析。随着测序技术取代其他实验室方法,唯一的问题将是这些检测是在绒毛、羊水细胞还是母血上进行。
