Abstract excerpt
Whole-exome sequencing (WES) is widely used to detect genetic mutations that cause Mendelian diseases, and has been successfully applied in combination with preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) to avoid the transmission of genetic defects. We investigated 40 nonconsanguineous families with unexplained, recurrent fetal malformations (two or more malformed fetuses) from May 2016 to December 2018. Using Trio-WES,...
