Clinical data, including prenatal ultrasound findings, genetic testing results (conventional chromosome analysis, chromosomal microarray analysis [CMA]\/copy number variation sequencing [CNV\u2010seq], CNV\u2010seq\u2010PLUS, and exome sequencing [ES]) were systematically reviewed as well as pregnancy outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The most common prenatal ultrasound finding was clubfoot, observed in 50.7% (35\/69) of fetuses. Abnormalities in other systems occurred in 84.06% of cases (58\/69), with an abnormal facial profile being the most frequent, detected in 30.43% (21\/69). Aneuploidy and pathogenic copy number variations (CNV) were identified in 10.45% (7\/67) of the unrelated families. By exome sequencing, we identified causative variants in 14 of 42 families with negative karyotype and CNV results, yielding a diagnostic rate of 33.33% (14\/42) Pregnancy outcomes were available for 62 cases, with a high rate of termination (95.16%, 59\/62). Among the three newborns, two died in the neonatal or infantile period, and only one survived with persistent arthrogryposis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A comprehensive joint and movement assessment is essential when clubfoot is detected.
