Abstract

Congenital constriction ring syndrome also known as streeter bands or dysplasia, annular grooves or defects, amniotic band syndrome and intrauterine amputation is a name given to a cluster of congenital malformations grouped together, believed to be caused by fibrous amniotic bands tightly tied around the limbs or digits. It is characterized by syndactyly, hypoplasia, brachydactyly, symphalangism, symbrachydactyly, club foot, cleft lip, cleft palate, cranial defects. We present a case, 4 year old male child with bilateral lower limb constriction rings with a club foot deformity in one and absent distal tibia and fibula with a rudimentary foot in another limb.
