We describe a patient with recurrent non-immune hydrops fetalis diagnosed as mucopolysaccharidosis type VII. This rare autosomal recessive disorder is caused by a beta-glucuronidase deficiency. Chorionic villus sampling was performed in the 11th week of the subsequent pregnancy and beta-glucuronidase deficiency in chorionic villi indicated that the fetus was affected. After termination in the 12th week, signs of early hydrops fetalis were observed.
