[Prenatal diagnosis of genetic diseases. Results of 57 early amniocenteses]. 1975

L Larget-Piet, and R Le Lirzin, and J Berthelot, and A Larget-Piet, and R Rouchy

The authors report the results of anmiocenteses carried out early in 57 cases, in order to detect hereditary disorders in high risk pregnancies. They emphasize the necessity of prior genetic consultation and obstetric examination. Among the 57 cases, 53 had the examination carried out in order to seek a chromosome anomaly. The techniques of removal and culture are described. One pregnancy was interrupted, the foetus had a chromosome abnormality. The psychological aspect and the necessity of close cooperation between gynecologists and geneticians are discussed.
