Soft ultrasound markers were initially described as a screening method for trisomy 21 to improve the detection rate over that based on age-related risk alone. In this chapter, we discuss the implications of isolated soft markers in the context of contemporary serum aneuploidy screening methods. With the exception of a thickened nuchal fold, when an isolated soft marker is identified after negative screening results, patients may be reassured that the risks of fetal aneuploidy remain low.
