Abstract

OC06.07: Maternal plasma genome-wide cell-free DNA testing can detect fetal aneuploidy in pregnancy loss and can be used to guide further work-up in recurrent losses However, the most common cause of miscarriage, even in RPLs, is random chromosomal aberrations (trisomy, monosomy, triploidy). We suggest that cfDNA-based testing serve to guide management in RPLs: if cfDNA in the 2nd and subsequent RPL demonstrates aneuploidy, no further action is taken; if cfDNA demonstrates an unbalanced rearrangement, parental karyotypes is recommended; and if no abnormality is detected, then the recommended RPL workup is performed.
