Evaluation of Diagnostic Yield in Fetal Whole-Exome Sequencing: A Report on 45 Consecutive Families

Abstract excerpt

Prenatal ultrasound (US) abnormalities often pose a clinical dilemma and necessitate facilitated investigations in the search of diagnosis. The strategy of pursuing fetal whole-exome sequencing (WES) for pregnancies complicated by abnormal US findings is gaining attention, but the reported diagnostic yield is variable.
