Clinical results and fetal biochemical data in 140 early second trimester diagnostic cordocenteses
The authors report their experience on 140 diagnostic cordocenteses performed in the early trimester of pregnancy (technique, indications and complications). Furthermore the Authors report preliminary data concerning various fetal blood biochemical parameters (22) obtained by cordocentesis at 18-19 weeks of pregnancy (42 cases). Fetal and maternal values are compared.
