Abstract:Objective To explore the relationship between different prenatal diagnosis indications and fetal karyotypes of amniocentesis in pregnant women, and to provide more accurate genetic counseling for prenatal diagnosis. Methods Total of 880 pregnant women with prenatal diagnosis indications who were treated in our hospital from July 2017 to July 2019 were selected. Among them, there were 93 cases of abnormal pregnancy history, 9 cases of chromosomal abnormality of husband/wife, 129 cases of ultrasound abnormality, 226 cases of elderly pregnant women and 423 cases of high risk of serum screening. All pregnant women underwent abdominal amniocentesis to obtain amniotic fluid cells. Karyotype analysis was performed using chromosome microarray analysis (CMA). The fetal chromosome karyotype was compared under different prenatal diagnostic indications. Results The number of abnormal fetal chromosome karyotypes for each indication was 4, 9, 8, 10, and 25, with incidence rates of 4.30%, 100%, 6.20%, 4.42%, and 5.91% respectively, and the total detection rate was 6.36%. The chromosome karyotypes abnormalities included 25 of abnormal chromosome number and 31 of polymorphic variation. The detection rate of abnormal chromosome number was 44.64% (25/56), which was lower than that of polymorphism variation 55.36% (31/56) (P < 0.05). Among them, chromosome number abnormality included 9 cases of 21 trisomy chromosomes, 6 cases of 18 trisomy chromosomes, 5 cases of 13 trisomy chromosomes, 3 cases of sex chromosomes and 2 cases of autosomes, accounting for 16.07%, 10.71%, 8.93%, 5.36% and 3.57% of the total abnormal cases respectively. There were 12 cases of chromosome microdeletion and 19 cases of microduplication in polymorphic variation, 21.43% and 33.93% of total abnormal cases, respectively. There were 25 abnormal fetal chromosome numbers under different prenatal indications, and all patients accepted opinions to induce labor. There were both 2 pathogenicity of chromosomal microdeletion/microduplication, 4 in total. The fetus were abnormal in 3 normal pregnancy and 1 induced labor. The other cases were of unknown significance. No abnormality was found after normal pregnancy. Chromosome number deletion was found in the database. Conclusion Using CMA to detect fetal chromosomes, polymorphic variation can be detected more accurately to detect pathogenic variation, and recorded in the database, which can provide more accurate genetic counseling.
