Prenatal diagnosis of fetal skeletal dysplasia using targeted next-generation sequencing: an analysis of 30 cases.

Background: This study aims to provide genetic diagnoses for 30 cases of fetal skeletal dysplasia, and a molecular basis for the future prenatal diagnosis of fetal skeletal dysplasia.

Methods: A total of 30 cases of fetal skeletal dysplasia detected with ultrasound between January 2014 and June 2017 were analyzed. Among these fetuses, 15 fetuses had local skeletal malformations, while 15 fetuses had short limb malformations.

[Applications of laparoscopic ultrasound in gynecological surgery].

Objective: To evaluate the application value of laparoscopic ultrasonography (LUS) in gynecological surgery.

Methods: Retrospective analyses were performed for 52 cases undergoing LUS during laparoscopic extirpation/excision of gynecological tumors. Aloka 7.
