Pathophysiology of increased nuchal translucency: a review of the literature

1 Mar 2003

Abstract excerpt

First-trimester nuchal translucency (NT) measurement is a widely used technique to determine the risk of fetal aneuploidy. The aim of this review was to explore the different hypotheses on the aetiology of increased NT. Using a computerized database (PubMed), articles on the aetiology of first-trimester NT were retrieved. Furthermore, the cited references of the studied articles were used to find additional...
