Overview

The diagnosis of AIS is mostly made postnatally. Studies have shown that the AIS may be identified prenatally by imaging techniques and comparative study.

Screening

  • The diagnosis of AIS is mostly made postnatally. But, in a study which diagnosed mid-second trimester fetus with thick nuchal translucency (NT) / nuchal fold (NF) and short limbs was likely to be AIS. Hence, appearance of fetal sex on ultrasound should be compared with genetic sex. [1]
  • With increased use, discordance among prenatal testing modalities such as preimplantation genetic screening, noninvasive prenatal screening, and ultrasonography will become more common requiring expert navigation to identify true pathology. [2]
