Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have carefully gone through the details. You have not indicated a number of details. I assume that this is the FISH result of an yet unborn fetus. I would require confirmation from you on this and if so, I need to know the gestational age of the fetus. The FISH results show number of genetic abnormalities and there is doubt whether it is actually viable for life.
I would request you to provide further details and let me know the things that you specifically want to know. I shall try to help you accordingly.
I would await your response.

This is second trimester amniotic fluid test result sir...
Brief Answer:
Outcome of pregnancy not favourable. Discuss the options with your doctor.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for writing back.
I am sorry to let you know that the report is not quite favourable. There is doubt if the fetus will be viable. Even if I assume viability, major complications are likely. Please discuss with your doctor about the options. In such a scenario, you should perhaps consider medical termination of pregnancy.
