Abstract Background This study aimed to estimate the associations of copy number variants (CNVs) with fetal kidney ultrasound anomalies. A total of 331 fetuses with kidney ultrasound anomalies who underwent prenatal chromosomal microarray analyses were enrolled. The fetuses were classified into groups with isolated and nonisolated anomalies or according to the types of kidney anomalies. Results Clinically significant CNVs were identified in 3.4% or 7.3% of fetuses with isolated or nonisolated kidney anomalies, respectively. CNVs were more frequently identified in fetuses with abnormal embryonic migration of the kidneys (6.6%) than in fetuses with malformations of the renal parenchyma (4.7%) or anomalies of the urinary collecting system (3.4%). In particular, CNVs were most frequently detected in fetuses with ectopic kidneys (9.5%) but not in fetuses with horseshoe kidneys or isolated duplex kidneys. Among these CNVs, the most common were del(17)(q12q12) (1.2%) and del(22)(q11q11) (0.6%). The dup(17)(p12p12) and del(15)(q11.2q11.2) CNVs were identified in this study but not in previous studies. The del(X)(p11.4p11.4) and del(16)(p13.3p13.3) CNVs were further implicated as associated with kidney anomalies. Conclusions Fetuses with abnormal embryonic migration of the kidneys (particularly ectopic kidneys) showed a higher frequency of clinically significant CNVs, whereas fetuses with horseshoe kidneys or duplex kidneys were less frequently associated with these CNVs. |
