Case report: Prenatal diagnosis of rare chromosome mosaicism: discordant results between chorionic villi and amniotic fluid samples.

ABSTRACT: Objective: We described a unique case of near-negative chromosome mosaicism in chorionic villi but complete monosomy X in amniotic fluid. Methods: Chorionic villus sampling and amniocentesis were performed separately in the first and second trimesters. Chromosomal microarray (CMA) and rapid aneuploidy detection (QF-PCR and FISH) were performed on placental villi and uncultured amniotic fluid. After pregnancy termination, the placenta, umbilical cord, and fetal muscle tissues were sampled for FISH detection. Results: The CMA revealed a lower signal from chromosome X in chorionic villi, with a copy number of 1.85, implying the presence of mosaic monosomy X. However, the QF-PCR and FISH results were nearly normal. In uncultured amniotic fluid, CMA and rapid aneuploidy det
