The effect of the contents of exomphalos and nuchal translucency at 11–14 weeks on the likelihood of associated chromosomal abnormality

Previous publications suggest that exomphalos containing the liver as less likely to be associated with aneuploidy. The objective of the study was to explore the influence of exomphalos contents and nuchal translucency (NT) on the likelihood of aneuploidy.
