THE ROLE OF INVASIVE METHODS OF PRENATAL DIAGNOSTICS IN THE DETECTION OF CHROMOSOMAL ABNORMALITIES IN THE FETUS
The effectiveness of invasive methods of prenatal diagnosis in detecting chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus has been evaluated. The course and outcomes of pregnancies in women who are at high risk of having chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus were analyzed as well (159). Clarifying invasive prenatal diagnosis with information consent was carried out in 93 pregnant women. Chromosomal abnormalities were confirmed in 32 fetuses. In 15 of the 59 patients at high risk, who refused the invasive procedure, adverse pregnancy outcomes were observed. A high efficiency of prenatal karyotyping was noted
