Objective: To investigate the association of agenesis of the ductus venosus (ADV) with genetic abnormalities using genetic studies-Chromosomal Microarray Analysis (CMA) and Exome Sequencing (ES).
Design: Retrospective study of all fetuses diagnosed with ADV between January 2013 and December 2022 in a tertiary center.
Results: ADV was diagnosed in 33 fetuses.
Purpose: To evaluate whether ethnicity affects the risk of full mutation expansion among females heterozygous for FMR1 premutation.
Methods: Women who carry the FMR1 premutation alelle of Jewish origin who underwent fragile X prenatal diagnosis between 2011 and 2018 in two medical centers in Israel were included. The heterozygote women and fetuses were analyzed for the number of CGG repeats and AGG interruptions.
Technological advancements in surgical planning and patient-specific implants are constantly evolving. One can either adopt the technology to achieve better results, even in the less experienced hand, or continue without it. As technology develops and becomes more user-friendly, we believe it is time to allow the surgeon the option to plan his/her operations and create his/her own patient-specific surgical guides and fixation plates allowing him full control over the process.

Study Design: This study is a prospective, cross-sectional, observational (noninterventional) cohort study of mother-infant pairs. Criteria for inclusion were as follows: active labor with or without ruptured membranes and vaginally delivered neonates.
