Abstract excerpt
The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of whole exome sequencing (WES) for the genetic diagnosis of cases presenting with fetal structural anomalies detected by ultrasonography. WES was performed on 19 cases with prenatal structural anomalies. Genomic DNA was extracted from umbilical cords or umbilical blood obtained shortly after birth. WES data were analyzed on prenatal phenotypes alone, and...
