RESUMO

Spontaneous abortion occurs in 8-20% of recognized pregnancies and usually takes place in the first trimester (7-11 weeks). There are many causes of pregnancy loss, but the most important (about 75%) is the presence of chromosomal aberrations. We present the results of oligonucleotide array application in a cohort of 62 miscarriage cases. The inclusion criteria for the study were the loss after 8th week of pregnancy and the appearance of recurrent miscarriages. DNA was extracted from trophoblast or fetal skin fibroblasts. In the 62 tested materials from recurrent miscarriages, the detection rate was 56.5% (35/62). The most commonly found were aneuploidies (65%) (chromosomal trisomy 14, 16, 18, 21, and 22), Turner syndrome, and triploidy (17.1%). Other chromosomal abnormalities included pathogenic and likely pathogenic structural aberrations: 1) pathogenic: deletion 7p22.3p12.3 and duplication 9p24.3p13.2 inherited from the normal father, deletion 3q13.31q22.2 and deletion 3q22.3q23 of unknown inheritance and duplication of 17p12 inherited from father with foot malformation; 2) likely pathogenic variants: deletion 17p13.1 inherited from normal mother, deletion 5q14.3 of unknown inheritance and de novo deletion 1q21.1q21.2. Among these aberrations, six CNVs (copy number variants) were responsible for the miscarriage: deletion 7p22.3p12.3 and duplication 9p24.3p13.2, deletion 3q13.31q22.2 and deletion 3q22.3q23, and deletion 17p13.1 and deletion 1q21.1q21.2. Other two findings were classified as incidental findings (deletion 5q14.3 and 17p12 duplication). Our research shows that 17% of the aberrations (6/35 abnormal results) that cannot be identified by the routine kariotype analysis are structural aberrations containing genes important for fetal development, the mutations of which may cause spontaneous abortion.

RESUMO

Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is one of the most formidable challenges in present-day antenatal care. Pathological fetal growth is a well-known factor of not only in utero demise in the third trimester, but also postnatal morbidity and unfavorable developmental outcomes, including long-term sequalae such as metabolic diseases, diabetic mellitus or hypertension. In this review, the authors present the current state of knowledge about the genetic disturbances responsible for FGR diagnosis, divided into fetal, placental and maternal causes (including preeclampsia), as well as their impact on prenatal diagnostics, with particular attention on chromosomal microarray (CMA) and noninvasive prenatal testing technique (NIPT).

RESUMO

Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACDMPV) is a lethal lung developmental disorder caused by the arrest of fetal lung formation, resulting in neonatal death due to acute respiratory failure and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Heterozygous single-nucleotide variants or copy-number variant (CNV) deletions involving the FOXF1 gene and/or its lung-specific enhancer are found in the vast majority of ACDMPV patients. ACDMPV is often accompanied by extrapulmonary malformations, including the gastrointestinal, cardiac, or genitourinary systems. Thus far, most of the described ACDMPV patients have been diagnosed post mortem, based on histologic evaluation of the lung tissue and/or genetic testing. Here, we report a case of a prenatally detected de novo CNV deletion (~0.74 Mb) involving the FOXF1 gene in a fetus with ACDMPV and hydronephrosis. Since ACDMPV is challenging to detect by ultrasound examination, the more widespread implementation of prenatal genetic testing can facilitate early diagnosis, improve appropriate genetic counselling, and further management.

RESUMO

22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is the most common genomic disorder with an extremely broad phenotypic spectrum. The aim of our study was to investigate how often the additional variants in the genome can affect clinical variation among patients with the recurrent deletion. To examine the presence of additional variants affecting the phenotype, we performed microarray in 82 prenatal and 77 postnatal cases and performed exome sequencing in 86 postnatal patients with 22q11.2DS. Within those 159 patients where array was performed, 5 pathogenic and 5 likely pathogenic CNVs were identified outside of the 22q11.2 region. This indicates that in 6.3% cases, additional CNVs most likely contribute to the clinical presentation. Additionally, exome sequencing in 86 patients revealed 3 pathogenic (3.49%) and 5 likely pathogenic (5.81%) SNVs and small CNV. These results show that the extension of diagnostics with genome-wide methods can reveal other clinically relevant changes in patients with 22q11 deletion syndrome.

RESUMO

The aim of this study was to determine the suitability of the comparative genomic hybridization to microarray (aCGH) technique for prenatal diagnosis, but also to assess the frequency of chromosomal aberrations that may lead to fetal malformations but are not included in the diagnostic report. We present the results of the aCGH in a cohort of 7400 prenatal cases, indicated for invasive testing due to ultrasound abnormalities, high-risk for serum screening, thickened nuchal translucency, family history of genetic abnormalities or congenital abnormalities, and advanced maternal age (AMA). The overall chromosomal aberration detection rate was 27.2% (2010/7400), including 71.2% (1431/2010) of numerical aberrations and 28.8% (579/2010) of structural aberrations. Additionally, the detection rate of clinically significant copy number variants (CNVs) was 6.8% (505/7400) and 0.7% (57/7400) for variants of unknown clinical significance. The detection rate of clinically significant submicroscopic CNVs was 7.9% (334/4204) for fetuses with structural anomalies, 5.4% (18/336) in AMA, 3.1% (22/713) in the group of abnormal serum screening and 6.1% (131/2147) in other indications. Using the aCGH method, it was possible to assess the frequency of pathogenic chromosomal aberrations, of likely pathogenic and of uncertain clinical significance, in the groups of cases with different indications for an invasive test.
