Attrition of trisomies as a maternal screening device. An explanation of the association of trisomy 21 with maternal age.

Z Stein, W Stein, M Susser.   

Abstract

Analysis of published data indicates that the increased rate of trisomy 21 pregnancies with advancing maternal age is due to failure of a postulated maternal screening process between fertilisation and recognition. This mechanism may also operate in other trisomies.
