Abstract excerpt
The feasibility and accuracy of gene-specific molecular genetic diagnosis for congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency were studied in a group of 24 pregnancies at 25% risk of carrying an affected fetus. Chorionic villus sampling was performed in the majority of cases. Southern blot analysis was carried out to identify deletions or other gross rearrangements. In parallel, the...
