indication was increased NT. We excluded 24 cases of failed of cell culture or loss of follow up. Of these 174 procedures, a complete follow-up was obtained by a review of medical records and phonecall. Addition to fetal karyotyping these patients were managed with follow-up scans at 20–22 weeks, fetal echocardiography and in selected cases by infection screening. Especially our data set substantiates that additional MLPA analyses for further genetic syndrome. Results: Overall 69 (69/174, 39.66%) cases of chromosomal abnormalities were detected. In 105 (60.34%) with the normal karyotyping results, there were 8 (7.61%) abortions or FUID and 6 (5.71%) terminations of pregnancy. In the 91 (86.66%) survivors, 9 (8.57%) had abnormalities requiring medical or surgical treatment. The chance of a live-birth with no defects in the group with normal ultrasonographic findings was 71 (67.62%), for those with abnormal or suspicious ultrasonographic findings was 11 (10.48%). Moreover, microdeletions rate is 1.90%(2/105), all cases terminated of pregnancy. Conclusions: Grossly 47.13% (82/174) of cases with increased NT had a live-birth with no defects and chromosomal abnormality. Offering the parents the option for fetal karyotyping, the finding of increased translucency should stimulate the search for other fetal defects by detailed ultrasonography and special microdeletions study. If these results are normal features, physicians give a relief to parents and postnatal pediatric follow up should be arranged.
