The finding of trisomy 20 mosaicism in amniotic fluid is a cause of considerable anxiety for both physicians and parents. Although the significance of this finding is still not clear, some reassurance can be given to prospective parents, since the outcome has been normal in all reported pregnancies carried to term. Follow-up information on psychomotor development of these infants is needed in order to provide better genetic counseling to these families. We have followed three infants who have had normal growth and psychomotor development up to approximately 2 years.
羊水细胞中发现20号染色体三体性嵌合现象,这让医生和患儿父母都极为焦虑。尽管这一发现的意义仍不明确,但鉴于所有已报道的足月妊娠结局均正常,可为准父母提供一些安慰。为了能给这些家庭提供更好的遗传咨询,需要对这些婴儿的心理运动发育情况进行随访。我们已经跟踪了三名婴儿,他们在大约两岁前生长和心理运动发育均正常。
