① Replace Table 2 with the table below.

Total n (%) 111 (34.9 %) 116 (36.4%) 53 (16.6%) 38 (11.9%) 318
Note: PPROM, Preterm premature rupture of membrane.

② Replace Table 4 with the table below.

Table 4.Distribution of chromosomal anomalies among all indications.
Number of patients Percentage
Chromosomal disorders
Trisomy 21 39 12.3%
Trisomy 18 16 5%
Turner syndrome 7 2.2%
Triploidy 5 1.6%
Trisomy 13 3 0.9%
Triple X syndrome 2 0.6%
Duchenne muscular dystrophy 1 0.3%
