Rare autosomal trisomies are not rare and often associated with poor obstetric outcomes. They should be discussed with the clinician to guide management. Pregnancy outcomes varied by chromosome being generally favourable for some (eg, trisomy 7) and poor for others (eg, trisomy 22). In the presence of a RAT, pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A is predictive of placental dysfunction and fetal growth restriction.
