Maternal liver transplant: another cause of discordant fetal sex determination using cell free DNA

Tijdschriftbijdrage - Tijdschriftartikel

NIPT can very accurately determine fetal sex during pregnancy. We present an exceptional case where NIPT contradicts the ultrasound based sex determination. The pregnant woman was recipient of a liver transplant from a male donor. Graft-derived cell-free DNA released into the maternal circulation clouded the NIPT based sex determination. Hence, NIPT is not advisable when the pregnant mother underwent an organ transplant.
