Genetic amniocentesis in multiple gestations.
Thirty-one genetic amniocenteses involving multiple gestations were performed in the genetics unit between 1976 and 1982. Three sets of triplets were included. Precise locations of the sacs were determined using real-time ultrasonography and successful sampling of all sacs was accomplished. Spontaneous abortions occurred in two normal twins and one normal triplet gestation. Two therapeutic abortions were performed for fetal abnormalities. Two cases of discordance for trisomy 21 (one twin and one triplet) were allowed to continue; the twin case terminated at 25 weeks' gestation with neonatal deaths and the triplets are alive and well.

Third trimester ultrasound diagnosis of intestinal atresia following clinical evidence of polyhydramnios.
Five cases of intestinal atresia were diagnosed using real-time ultrasonography following clinical evidence of polyhydramnios. No correlation was noted between ultrasound findings and the severity of the lesions. Two of the five babies died at 35 and 77 days respectively. Prematurity and presence of other abnormalities were factors in the deaths.
