    Abstract:
    Early prenatal diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) has become possible after the identification of linked DNA markers on chromosome 7. Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) has made possible the first-trimester prenatal diagnosis of CF. We report our experience of 336 pregnant women between 8-12th week. Six different types of sampling devices have been used to get chorionic tissue. Our results proved that the quantity and the quality of the sample gained was the same irrespective of the method employed in obtaining them.
