What is the risk concerning pregnancy in cf patients?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cystic fibrosis: This condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, which means both copies of the gene in each cell have mutations. The parents of an individual with an autosomal recessive condition each carry one copy of the mutated gene, but they typically do not show signs and symptoms of the condition.
