title: [Risk of chromosomal pathology in fetus with abnormal umbilical artery flowmetry].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Goal of this study is to consider the incidence of chromosomal abnormalities in fetuses by velocimetry abnormalities.
  
  
  METHODS
  The author select 64 pregnancies by velocimetry abnormalities of umbilical artery diastolic flow (ARED: Absent or Reverse end Diastolic Flow).
  
  
  RESULTS
  The fetal cariotype from amniociti or from umbilical blood at delivery moment is resulted abnormal in 5 cases. Fetal-maternal risk factors of chromosomopaties are: malformations; fetal growth retardation; maternal age > or = 35.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Other studies and other results are necessary for this discussion.
