Abnormal Embryonic Karyotype and Recurrent Miscarriage
Abnormal Embryonic Karyotype and Recurrent Miscarriage
The prevalence of the abnormal embryonic karyotype in subjects with recurrent miscarriage was found to be 41.1%. The abnormal embryonic karyotype was found to be the commonest cause of miscarriage and often recurred as the cause of subsequent miscarriages. The prevalence of recurrent miscarriage of truly unexplained cause was found to be 24.5% in the present study. This should be a target of an RCT to determine the effectiveness of a treatment. These two groups should be distinguished for both clinical and research purposes. Embryonic analysis should be added to the list of evaluation items in women with recurrent miscarriages, for both clinical and research purposes.
