Dynamic ultrasound and three-dimensional reconstruction in the prenatal diagnosis of amniotic band syndrome
Amniotic band syndrome (ABS) results from rupture of the amniotic sac, leading to fibrous bands that may entangle and constrict fetal structures during intrauterine development (1) .Prenatal diagnosis using ultrasound has been reported for over 45 years (2,3) , and can be made as early as the first trimester.Recently, we registered a case of ABS by ultrasound beyond the characteristic fetal amputation malformations typically observed in this condition.
