Abstract

Down syndromes are the most commonly recognized genetic cause of mental retardation. The risk of trisomy 21 is directly related to maternal age, neuchal translucency, nasal bone, tricuspid valve regurgitation and fetal heart rate. Also, maternal serum markers must be included to increase the sensitivity and specificity of the ultrasound screening of Down syndrome.
