Chromosome Analysis Chorionic Villus Test
Comprehensive Prenatal Chromosomal Evaluation
The Chromosome Analysis Chorionic Villus Test represents a cornerstone of modern prenatal genetic diagnostics, offering expectant parents crucial insights into fetal chromosomal health during the first trimester. This sophisticated procedure analyzes chorionic villus samples obtained between 10-13 weeks of pregnancy, providing detailed chromosomal mapping that can detect a wide range of genetic conditions affecting fetal development.
What This Test Measures and Detects
Our Chromosome Analysis Chorionic Villus Test employs advanced cytogenetic techniques to examine fetal chromosomes comprehensively. The test specifically identifies:
- Numerical chromosomal abnormalities including Down syndrome (trisomy 21), Edwards syndrome (trisomy 18), and Patau syndrome (trisomy 13)
- Structural chromosome rearrangements such as translocations, deletions, and duplications
- Sex chromosome abnormalities including Turner syndrome and Klinefelter syndrome
- Mosaic chromosomal patterns that may affect fetal development
- Major chromosomal imbalances that could impact pregnancy outcomes
Who Should Consider This Prenatal Test
This specialized chromosomal analysis is particularly recommended for:
- Women with advanced maternal age (35 years or older)
- Couples with a family history of chromosomal disorders
- Previous pregnancy affected by chromosomal abnormalities
- Abnormal first-trimester screening results
- Parents carrying balanced chromosomal rearrangements
- Ultrasound findings suggesting fetal abnormalities
- Recurrent pregnancy loss history
