Amniotic band attachment to a fetal limb: demonstration with real-time sonography
Abstract
On ultrasonography, an 18-week-old fetus was found to have his left hand attached to an amniotic band. The child was born with typical anomalies of the amniotic band syndrome. This observation tends to support an extrinsic theory for the pathogenesis of the amniotic band syndrome.
