Here, we assessed the value of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays as a diagnostic tool.Methods: The results of prenatal diagnosis of 344 fetuses with CNS abnormalities as determined by ultrasonographic screening were retrospectively analyzed. All fetuses underwent chromosomal karyotype analysis and genome-wide SNP array analysis simultaneously. The resultant rates and frequencies of genomic abnormalities were compared.Results: Karyotype analysis found 45 (13.2%) abnormal CNS cases, while SNP array found 60 (17.4%) cases. SNP array detected 23 (6.7%) cases of submicroscopic abnormalities that karyotype analysis did not find. The detection rate of karyotype analysis was 8.1% in the group with isolated CNS anomalies, but 16.5% in the group with CNS abnormalities plus extra ultrasound anomalies. Detection rates of SNP array were 12.4% and 20.8% in these two groups, respectively. Statistical analysis showed that the detection rates of both methods were significantly higher in the group with CNS malformations and other ultrasound anomalies than in the group with isolated CNS anomalies. Abnormal chromosomes were detected most frequently in fetuses with holoprosencephaly.Conclusion: Genome-wide SNP array technology can significantly improve the positive detection rate of fetuses with CNS abnormalities. Combining karyotype analysis and SNP array technology is recommended for detecting the development of fetuses with abnormal CNS.Keywords: central nervous system abnormalities, chromosome, karyotype analysis, single nucleotide polymorphism microarray, prenatal diagnosis |
