Abstract: The most probable cause of an anembryonic gestation is an abnormal karyotype. The analysis of 59 cases of missed abortion with anembrionia prior to 12 weeks of gestation after spontaneous conception and the assisted reproductive technologies (ART) was carried out. Patients were divided into two groups: those pregnant after natural conception and those with pregnancies after the ART programs. Upon embryoscopy and direct chorion biopsy, samples were sent for karyotyping. High frequency of normal karyotypes of chorion was found: 28.6% and 44.7%, respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
