Monozygotic Twins Discordant for Monosomy 21 Detected by First-Trimester Nuchal Translucency Screening

1 Feb 2006

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Chromosomal abnormality in one fetus of a monozygotic twin pregnancy is rare, and discussion of prenatal detection of such a case offers some insight into this clinical problem. CASE: A 28-year-old gravida 1 had ultrasound screening at 11 weeks of gestation that revealed a monochorionic, diamniotic twin pregnancy with increased nuchal translucency (7.7 mm) in one fetus. Subsequent evaluation showed...
