    Analysis of fetal and maternal results from fetal genetic invasive procedures: an exploratory study at a University Hospital Objective: To characterize the indications of pregnant women who sought the Fetal Medicine Services of the Hospital das Clinicas, at the Medical School of the Universidade de Sao Paulo for performing invasive diagnostic procedures, and to evaluate the results of fetal karyotypes and their pregnancies. Methods: A retrospective and observational study on pregnant women who underwent chorionic villus sampling (CVS), amniocentesis, and cordocentesis in the period from February, 2005 to December, 2009. Other diagnostic or therapeutic procedures were not included. The result of pregnancy was obtained by consulting patient electronic records, medical records, and/or telephone call. Results: 713 procedures were performed (113 CVS, 340 amniocenteses, and 260 cordocenteses). The main indication for performing invasive procedures was the presence of structural changes in fetuses, followed by increased values of nuchal translucency, and advanced maternal age. Fetal karyotype was altered in 186 cases (26.1%). The 18 trisomy was the commonest aneuploidy followed by the 21 trisomy, X monosomy, and 13 trisomy. There were 4.9% cases of miscarriage, 25.7% cases of stillborn infants, and 13% cases of neonatal deaths. Eight pregnant women opted for legally induced abortion. 99% of pregnant women whose fetuses did not present abnormalities and presented normal fetal karyotype had infants who were born alive.

    Utilização de ácidos nucleicos fetais livres no plasma materno para o diagnóstico pré-natal: realidade do Brasil neste cenário
    (2012) ROMAO, Renata Moscolini; LEVI, Jose Eduardo; CARVALHO, Mario Henrique Burlacchini De; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli Vieira; AMORIM FILHO, Antonio Gomes De; ZUGAIB, Marcelo
    The discovery of cell-free fetal nucleic acids in the plasma of pregnant women has allowed the development of new, noninvasive prenatal diagnostic tests for the determination of fetal gender and Rh. These tests have been implemented in the public health system in several countries of Europe for over five years. The new possibilities for diagnostic use of these technologies are the detection of fetal chromosomal aneuploidies, monogenic fetal disorders, and placental-related disorders, subjects that have been intensively studied by several groups around the world. The aim of this review was to assess the Brazilian research and clinical scenarios regarding the utilization of commercially available tests that use these plasma markers, stressing the advantages, both economic and safety-related, that non-invasive tests have when compared to those currently used in the Brazilian public health system.
