Kumru, S., Kaya, S., Atım, A. ve Aslan, A. (2022). Treatment of an amniotic band syndrome with fetoscopic surgery: A case report. Perinatal journal (Online), 30(2), 195-199. https://dx.doi.org/10.2399/prn.22.0302006Özet
Objective: This study aimed to present an amniotic band syndrome case who underwent intrauterine fetoscopic surgery. Case: On ultrasound examination, edema was detected at the distal of the right upper extremity. The constrictive amniotic band tangling around the extremity at the upper part of the right elbow and around the umbilical cord was detected during the fetoscopic examination. The amniotic band was released by using endoscopic scissors and grasper. It was observed that the right hand was at the flexion position and was able to return to the neutral position on neonatal examination. Conclusion: Releasing amniotic band with fetoscopic surgery in amniotic band syndrome cases is an efficient method to prevent progressive destruction in the extremities and the procedure-related complications seem to be acceptable.
