✦ Synopsis


Chromosome analysis of amniotic fluid cells and amniotic fluid alpha-fetoprotein determinations were used to investigate a fetus with severe intrauterine growth retardation in the third trimester. The karyotype was 47,XY,18+ and increased alpha-fetoprotein levels indicated the presence of congenital malformations. We suggest that when severe fetal growth retardation is detected early in the antepartum course, amniotic fluid alpha-fetoprotein and amniotic fluid cell chromosome studies be done to determine if congenital anomalies may be an etiological factor.

Varicella syndrome (VS) specific malformations were sonographically seen at 22 weeks and 3 days of gestation. Fetal infection was demonstrated by detection of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) DNA in fetal blood and amniotic fluid by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Following therapeutic abortion, fetal
