Fetal sex determination from maternal blood at 6 weeks of gestation when at risk for 21-hydroxylase deficiency

1 May 2003

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: 21-hydroxylase deficiency can lead to masculinization of female fetuses. Corticosteroid therapy may reduce these effects. When the fetus is male, this approach means that unnecessary treatment, with theoretic side effects, is given until the result of chorionic villus sampling (CVS), a procedure with known risks, is available. CASE: A woman was referred for prenatal assessment at 6 weeks' gestation...
