Abstract
We describe an extreme case of amniotic band syndrome, presented with fetal stress during labor and associated with strangulation of umbilical cord.
Figures
Fetal heart rate monitoring: (a,b). Persistent decreased variability (<5 bpm).
Umbilical cord strangulation: (a) Entrapment of umbilical cord by amniotic band. (b) Visualization of amniotic band.
