| chorionic sac | 1. Protective membrane around the eggs of insects and fishes. 2. Extraembryonic membrane surrounding the embryo of amniote vertebrates. The outer epithelial layer of the chorion is derived from the tropoblast. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| chorionic villi | <anatomy> The vascular projections from the chorion. (27 Sep 1997) |
| chorionic villi sampling | A method for diagnosis of foetal diseases by sampling the cells of the placental chorionic villi for DNA analysis, presence of bacteria, concentration of metabolites, etc. The advantage over amniocentesis is that the procedure can be carried out in the first trimester. (12 Dec 1998) |
| chorionic villus biopsy | Transcervical or transabdominal sampling of the chorionic villi for genetic analysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chorionic villus sampling | <procedure> A procedure for obtaining a sample of chorionic villi for the purpose of genetic testing, usually performed between 9 and 12th weeks of pregnancy. Amniocentesis testing has greatly supplanted the use of this form of genetic testing. (27 Sep 1997) |
| hormone, human chorionic gonadotropin | A human hormone made by chorionic cells (in the foetal part of the placenta), hcg is directed at the gonads and stimulates them. Hcg becomes detectable (by immunologic means) within days of the time of fertilization. It therefore forms the foundation of most common pregnancy tests. The level of hcg in maternal serum enters as one component in the double and the triple screens used during pregnancy to assign risks of down syndrome and other foetal disorders. (12 Dec 1998) |
