Laboratory problems and diagnostic difficulties are analysed in 1135 prenatal cytogenetic examinations of amniotic fluid cells in the Genetics Laboratory of the Mother and Child Institute. The effectiveness and the reliability of the method for the purposes of prenatal diagnosis of chromosomal aberrations were evaluated. They were comparable to those reported from other similar centres in the world.
