Resumen

El tamizaje prenatal de aneuploidías ha tenido una importante evolución desde los tiempos de la utilización de la edad materna como único método de tamizaje, hasta la época actual con el empleo de marcadores ultrasonográficos y serológicos de primer trimestre.

En esta revisión del tema, se hace énfasis en la utilización de la sonolucencia nucal como marcador ultrasonográfico del primer trimestre, la forma correcta de usar e interpretar los resultados, así como su interrelación con marcadores serológicos de primero y segundo trimestres.

Los estudios más relevantes sobre el tema revelan tasas de detección que varían con base en las diferentes estrategias escogidas para el tamizaje prenatal y las distintas tasas de falsos positivos.

Cada día aparecen nuevos marcadores y diferentes estrategias de tamizaje que demandan una evaluación exhaustiva antes de ponerlas en práctica en el ejercicio rutinario.
