Maternal Cell Contamination: Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Cost in India

Maternal Cell Contamination (MCC) is a common phenomenon that occurs during prenatal testing. It happens when the DNA of the mother is present in the sample, leading to inaccurate results. This can have serious consequences, as it can lead to unnecessary medical interventions and emotional distress for the parents.

Causes of Maternal Cell Contamination

MCC can occur during prenatal testing, such as amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling. These tests involve taking a sample of the amniotic fluid or placental tissue, which contains fetal DNA. However, if maternal cells are present in the sample, they can interfere with the results.

Other causes of MCC include contamination during sample collection or processing. This can happen if the sample is not properly handled or stored, leading to the presence of maternal cells in the sample.

Symptoms of Maternal Cell Contamination

There are no specific symptoms of MCC, as it is a laboratory error that occurs during prenatal testing. However, inaccurate results can lead to unnecessary medical interventions, such as termination of pregnancy or unnecessary treatment for a condition that the fetus does not have.

Diagnosis of Maternal Cell Contamination

MCC can be diagnosed through additional testing, such as a repeat amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling. These tests can confirm whether the results of the initial test were accurate or not. If the results are still inconclusive, further testing may be required.

Cost of Maternal Cell Contamination Testing in India

The cost of MCC testing in India varies depending on the type of test and the laboratory performing it. On average, the cost of a repeat amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling can range from INR 4,000 to INR 6,000. However, the cost may be higher if additional testing is required.

Conclusion

Maternal Cell Contamination is a common occurrence during prenatal testing that can lead to inaccurate results and unnecessary medical interventions. It is important to be aware of the causes and symptoms of MCC, and to seek additional testing if necessary. The cost of MCC testing in India can vary, but it is a small price to pay for the peace of mind that comes with accurate prenatal testing.

If you have any concerns about MCC or prenatal testing, it is important to speak with your healthcare provider or a genetic counselor.
