Abstract excerpt
This study was conducted to evaluate the value of histomorphological features of chorionic villi, such as size, shape, vascularity, trophoblast proliferation and trophoblastic pseudo-inclusions, for the prediction of chromosomal abnormality. Slides of 83 early spontaneous abortions were assessed by three observers. Assessments and karyotype were compared and likelihood ratios computed. Likelihood ratios of < or =...
