Cureus. 2024 Mar 25;16(3):e56921. doi: 10.7759/cureus.56921. eCollection 2024 Mar.

Abstract

We report the first case of successful genetic counseling for an infertile couple with premature chromatid separation (PCS) syndrome. After our careful genetic counseling, the couple decided to continue infertility treatment. As a result, they gave birth to a baby (girl: 2,930 g) by caesarean section in May 2018. To our knowledge, there have not been any published reports regarding genetic counseling for an infertile couple with PCS after PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science searches until March 2024.
