The cohort was recruited between Oct 22, 2014, and June 29, 2017, and clinical data were collected until March 31, 2018. The primary endpoint, which was assessed in all fetuses, was the detection of diagnostic genetic variants considered to have caused the fetal developmental anomaly. Genetic results related to fetal structural anomaly phenotypes were then validated and reported postnatally. Sequencing results were interpreted with a targeted virtual gene panel for developmental disorders that comprised 1628 genes.

The partners of these women also had to consent to participate. Women were eligible for inclusion if they were undergoing invasive testing for identified nuchal translucency or structural anomalies in their fetus, as detected by ultrasound after 11 weeks of gestation. We used whole-exome sequencing (WES) to evaluate the presence of genetic variants in developmental disorder genes (diagnostic genetic variants) in a cohort of fetuses with structural anomalies and samples from their parents, after exclusion of aneuploidy and large CNVs. In this prospective cohort study, two groups in Birmingham and London recruited patients from 34 fetal medicine units in England and Scotland.

WES and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) are performed to identify the cause of heritable diseases and for various other applications, including population genetics and cancer studies. Variant types include single nucleotide variants (SNVs), small DNA insertions or deletions (indels), copy number variants (CNVs), or other structural variants (SVs). The exome represents less than 2% of the genome but is estimated to contain about 85% of known disease-related variants.
