Amniotic band sequence (ABS): a 14-year retrospective audit of perinatal autopsies at an Australian tertiary perinatal pathology centre
Key Points
To evaluate the risk factors and outcomes associated with amniotic band sequence in perinatal autopsies.
Conducted a 14-year retrospective audit at an Australian tertiary perinatal pathology centre.
Analyzed cases of amniotic band sequence identified during perinatal autopsies.
Identified limb amputations and deformities in cases of amniotic band sequence.
Highlighted unclear aetiology and underlying risk factors associated with ABS.
Abstract
Background: Amniotic band sequence (ABS) results in limb amputations, deformities, and foetal demise. Despite multiple theories, its aetiology or underlying risk factors remain unclear.
