    Author: Nemeti M, Bolodár A, Papp Z.
    Journal: Orv Hetil; 1990 Nov 04; 131(44):2421-2, 2425-6. PubMed ID: 2243696.
    Abstract:
    25 families at risk of having a child with cystic fibrosis have been counselled about prenatal diagnosis by the use of linked DNA probes (xV-2c, pCS.7, Met D, Met H, pJ3.11 and KM 19). In 20 families one or more informative probes, in 3 cases only partly informative probes were found, and in 2 families there was no informative probe at all. In 9 cases prenatal diagnosis have been performed, 6 children have been born and confirmed to be free from cystic fibrosis and 3 terminations were carried out because of prenatal prediction of cystic fibrosis.
