Objective: To systematically review current evidence regarding prenatal diagnosis and management of transient abnormal myelopoiesis (TAM) in fetuses with trisomy 21. A novel case of GATA1-positive TAM, in which following serial in utero blood transfusion clinical improvement and postnatal remission were observed, is included.

Search Strategy And Data Collection: A systematic search of electronic databases (inception to October 2014) and reference lists, hand-searching of journals and expert contact.

The genetic etiology of non-aneuploid fetal structural abnormalities is typically investigated by karyotyping and array-based detection of microscopically detectable rearrangements, and submicroscopic copy-number variants (CNVs), which collectively yield a pathogenic finding in up to 10% of cases. We propose that exome sequencing may substantially increase the identification of underlying etiologies. We performed exome sequencing on a cohort of 30 non-aneuploid fetuses and neonates (along with their parents) with diverse structural abnormalities first identified by prenatal ultrasound.
