摘要：
Since the localization of the myotonic muscular dystrophy gene, closer deoxyribonucleic acid markers have been discovered. These now facilitate both presymptomatic and prenatal diagnosis of myotonic muscular dystrophy. We report our prenatal diagnosis experience with six cases in five families. Obstetricians are advised to inform their patients with a family history of myotonic muscular dystrophy of these testing opportunities. The fetus of the mother with myotonic muscular dystrophy who remains in utero until term is at considerable risk, as is the mother herself, of serious obstetric complications.
