양막대에 의한 제대감돈으로 인한 태아사망 1례

Abstract

The amniotic band syndrome(ABS) is the triad of amnion-denuded placnta ;fetal attachment to or entanglement by amniotic remnants ; and fetal deformation, malformation or disruption. Nearly 10% of amniotic bands include umbilical cord strangulation. Cord entanglement may occur before or after other damage to the fetus by amniotic bands and, encountered at near-term pregnancy. Because of the apparent rarity of this condition, the following case is reported. We had experinced a case of intrauterine fetal death at term caused by strangulation of umbilical cord by amniotic band and presented with a brief review of literatures.
