Genetics and Stillbirth.

Abstract excerpt

Stillbirth affects over 3 million pregnancies globally and remains unexplained in roughly half of US cases. Genetic testing has uncovered chromosomal causes in approximately 6% to 13% of stillbirths, while exome sequencing has identified Mendelian variants in an additional approximately 5% to 10%. Family-based genome sequencing may allow identification of inherited and de novo pathogenic variants with increased...
