Associations Between Fetal Genetic Abnormalities, Lesion Size, and Postnatal Outcomes Among Pregnancies Complicated by Fetal Omphalocele
While pregnancies with genetic abnormalities were associated with smaller lesions and higher rates of primary surgical closure, no lesion measurement performed well as a predictor of genetic abnormality. Our findings support offering genetic testing in all cases of fetal omphalocele, regardless of size.
