Description
The lucid color illustrations and succinct text of this atlas provide a unique source of information on abnormal human development. Derived from a long-term collaborative study at Columbia University involving the pathological examination and classification of spontaneous abortion specimens, the volume summarizes years of experience in studying the morphological spectrum characteristic of the chromosome defects that lead to prenatal death. It is divided into sections on monosomy X, triploidy, trisomy, and tetraploidy. The work is especially timely given the increased interest in fetal medicine fostered by the advent of new techniques for prenatal diagnosis and the attendant concern of prospective parents regarding the course and outcome of pregnancy. - from Amzon
