Amniocentesis is a surgical procedure in which a small amount of amniotic fluid is withdrawn from the amniotic sac fluid surrounding the fetus. The amniotic fluid is then processed to separate the fetal cells for chromosome analysis and for prenatal diagnosis of other genetic abnormalities like Thallasemia , Muscular Dystrophy etc. Procedure is done at around 16 18 weeks gestation under ultrasound guidance and it does not require any anesthesia or a hospital stay. Procedure carries 0.5% risk of abortion.
