Recent reports suggest an increased incidence of chromosomal abnormalities in pregnancies with amniotic fluid-cell culture failure. We retrospectively reviewed the cytogenetic results of 14,165 amniotic fluid samples processed in our laboratory from 1987 to 1996. Ninety-eight per cent of the samples
Trisomy 16 mosaicism was found in amniotic fluid cells in a patient undergoing amniocentesis because of elevated second-trimester maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (MSAFP) (2.80 MOM), a markedly elevated human chorionic gonadotropin level (hCG) (12.02 MOM), and a Down syndrome risk of 1:55. Ultrasoun
