Examining the title of placenta and fetal autopsy conference
In this meeting, which was held under the management of Dr. Madbari, the CEO of Hope Generation Medical Institute, specialists and experts from related fields expressed their views regarding the title of this conference. During this meeting, it was suggested to pay attention to the role of fetal autopsy in the diagnosis and management of pregnancies exposed to genetic disorders. Also, according to experts in this field, due to the comprehensiveness of the topic of fetal autopsy, it is necessary to pay attention to the cooperation of sonologists, metabolic and genetics specialists in addition to fetal autopsy in choosing the title of the conference. Therefore, it is necessary to have the title of the conference in such a way that a panel can be appointed for these issues so that, in addition to autopsy, PGD indications and genetic diagnoses before embryo implantation are also examined.
Necessity and importance of fetal and placenta autopsy
In another part of this meeting, which was hosted by Hope Generation Medical Institute, experts explained the importance of fetal autopsy. In this meeting, it was emphasized on the preservation of fetal samples and babies who die with all kinds of anomalies. It was also discussed in this meeting that it is not possible to diagnose some problems during the fetal period or at birth by genetic testing and ultrasound, and this emphasizes the important role of fetal autopsy in preventing fetal infections in subsequent pregnancies.
In other words, many small fetal anomalies (Minor Anomaly) cannot be detected in ultrasound, chromosomal and array tests; But with fetal autopsy, these cases can be recognized. Also, when NGS Based tests such as exome are needed, the fetal abnormality phenotype will be very helpful in data analysis and diagnosis.
