The Role of Expanded Panel Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing in Identifying Rare Autosomal Trisomies in Pregnancies With Placentally-Mediated Complications

This study evaluates the utility of expanded panel non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) in detecting confined placental mosaicism of rare autosomal trisomies among pregnancies with placentally-mediated complications, including fetal growth restriction and severe preeclampsia.
