We report a personal experience of first-trimester prenatal diagnosis of Ellis-van Creveld (EvC) syndrome based on typing of microsatellite markers flanking the EvC locus. An heterozygous fetus was diagnosed with a diagnostic accuracy of 96 per cent. The DNA prediction was confirmed by ultrasound at
A combination of Southern blotting and the analysis of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified DNA fragments was used to screen the factor VIII genes of 527 haemophilia A patients for point mutations within TaqI restriction sites. Since this "directed search" strategy yielded only four gene lesion
