A Case of Amniotic Band Syndrome Associated with Retinopathy of Prematurity / 대한주산의학회잡지

Amniotic band syndrome is an uncommon congenital fetal abnormality with defects of skin resulting in ringlike strictures about the limbs and occasionally the trunk. Its pathogenesis has been still debated in the literature for many years. Amniotic band syndrome features multiple disfiguring and disabling manifestations. A clinical deformities include limb defects, craniofacial defect, visceral defect, body wall defect and other anomalies. We had experienced a case of amniotic band syndrome with retinopathy of prematurity, bilateral orofacial cleft, aphalangia of right hand, ventricular septal defect and atrial septal defect. We report this case with a brief review of the literature.
