Abstract

Amniotic band syndrome is a rare set of congenital malformations attributed to the anomalous amniotic bands that entangle fetal parts during intrauterine life resulting in a broad spectrum of anatomical disturbances. It is a rare condition and is mostly associated with other musculo-skeletal disorders. Amniotic band syndrome should be considered in every newborn with congenital anomalies, especially defects of extremities and/ or body walls. We report a case of amniotic band syndrome along with X ray findings in a male child born with congenital malformation of the extremities.
