We describe a patient with recurrent non-immune hydrops fetalis diagnosed as mucopolysaccharidosis type VII. This rare autosomal recessive disorder is caused by a beta-glucuronidase deficiency. Chorionic villus sampling was performed in the 11th week of the subsequent pregnancy and beta-glucuronidas
Two pregnancies at risk for the carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome Type 1A (CDG1A, phosphomannomutase deficient) were monitored by enzyme and genetic linkage analyses. The index case in both families had a proven deficiency of phosphomannomutase (PMM). An unaffected fetus was predicted in
