Invasive testing for the karyotyping of mid‐trimester intrauterine fetal death (IUFD): a pilot study

Abstract

The high rate of aneuploidy (50%) in this small cohort emphasises the need for karyotyping. A successful karyotype in all ten pregnancies demonstrates the value of offering these procedures before a termination of pregnancy. We would recommend the adoption of this approach in the management of IUFD occurring after the first trimester.
