  • DES
  • Oral contraceptives
  • Cortisone
448
Q

Maternal disease

A
  • Dibates

- Phenylketonuria

449
Q

Maternal diabetes

A

Excess glucose goes to baby and triggered baby’s pancreas to form insulin so when fetus is born, has a higher weight than normal

Heart+neural tube defects

450
Q

Phenylketonuria

A

Intellectual disability, microcephaly

451
Q

Nutritional deficiency

A
  • Folic acid

452
Q

Folic acid

Prevent cretinism

454
Q

Zinc

A

Prevent premature birth

455
Q

Iron

A

Prevent low birth weight

456
Q

Male-mediated tertatogens

A

Exposure to smoking and alcohol leads to deformed +bad sperm

457
Q

Sacrococcygeal teratoma

A

Remnants of the primitive strake stay in the sacrococcygeal region and leads to tumors forming there

458
Q

Holoprosencephaly

A

  • Chorionic villus sampling
  • Cordocentesis
  • Karyotyping
461
Q

Ultrasonography

A

Can begin seeing fetus at 6 weeks. Can show neural tube defects, heart defects. Can’t show Down’s syndrome

Can see CRL+CHL

462
Q

Maternal screening

A
  • Alpha ferroprotein: produces by fetal liver and increases during second trimester and decreases by week 30. Low levels=downs syndrome, trisomy 18, sex chromosomal abnormalities
  • Unconjugated estradiol: low=downs syndrome
  • hCG: decreases after week 16. If high, then molar pregnancy
  • Inhibin a: detesting trisomy 21, 18, and other chromosomal abnormalities
463
Q

Amniocentesis

A

Performed at weeks 15,17,20. Take a bit of a bit of fluid for testing. Can’t see Down’s syndrome

464
Q

Chorionic villi sampling

A

Performed at weeks 8,10,12.

Test for chromosomal abnormalities (not Down’s syndrome)

465
Q

Umbilical chord sampling (cordocentesis)

A

Blood withdrawn from umbilical chord. Performed when all other methods can’t detect disease. Can detect Down’s syndrome

466
Q

Karyotyping

A

Looking at all the chromosomes to see chromosomal defects

467
Q

A

Adding hormones to fetus to treat inborn errors of metabolism

468
Q

469
Q

A

Adding stem cells to fetus before week 18 (before baby develops immune response)

470
Q

Cord cell banking

A

Keeping chord cells in a bank since they have a lot of mesenchymal cells
