6. Consequences of amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling for prenatal diagnosis
Sammanfattning : Amniocentesis (AC) and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) are the principal methods for fetal karyotyping. The aim of this thesis was to evaluate psychological reactions and risks associated with the procedures.A semi-randomised study was made on 321 women, where AC (147) and CVS (174) at 10-13 weeks’ gestation were done trans-abdominally.

7. Aspects of the human enteric nervous system : A study of the normal development and of Hirschsprung's disease
Sammanfattning : Thirty patients with Hirschsprung's disease (HD) who underwent Rehbein's anterior resection, using a circular stapler to perform the anastomosis, were evaluated retrospectively. The postoperative complication rate and long-term functional outcome were similar to those reported by other investigators using the same and other techniques. LÄS MER

9. New molecular tools for prenatal diagnosis
Sammanfattning : Prenatal diagnosis enables identification of severe disease in the fetus, and allows for planning and management of future pregnancies if an underlying genetic mechanism is identified. The studies included in this thesis have taken advantage of the dramatic progress in medical genetics, in order to develop and evaluate new procedures to diagnose genetic disorders in fetal life.
