【 摘 要 】

Introduction Part of the SONOSEROSCREEN PROJECT , we study at the end of the first trimester  a group of biochemical and ultrasonographic variables. Regardeless the results obtained, all the patients enrolled in this cohort is subject to a second study in the early second trimester that  encompases the dosage of AFP(+/- Ia), β-hCG, uE3 and an  ultrasonographic exam targeted at precise biometry and fetal morphology. We tried to evaluate the achievable benefits  of assesing several markers that are part of the genetic sonogram and the way they change the risk class. Methods The markers we chose to pursue in our project werenuchal fold, nasal bone,  cardiac echogenic foci, short femur, short humerus, presence of echogenic bowel.  All present results markers were integrated in a formula that allowed reasesment of  the risk as published by DeVore and we followed in which way this affected the decision whether to proceed with the amiocentesis or not. Our choice was limited by th.
