Diagnosis of trisomy 18 was made following prenatal screening at 11 weeks' gestation for ultrasonographically detected nuchal translucency and subsequent chorionic villus sampling. An intact fetus was therapeutically aborted and pathological examination was undertaken. We conclude that, although the etiology of nuchal translucency remains unclear, it does not appear to be lymphatic or cardiac in origin.
孕11周时，因超声检测到颈部半透明层增厚，随后进行绒毛取样，诊断出18三体综合征。对完整胎儿进行了治疗性流产并进行了病理检查。我们得出结论，虽然颈部半透明层增厚的病因尚不清楚，但它似乎并非起源于淋巴或心脏。
