Suzy, et al. I think the current consensus is that these were not amniontic bands, but uterine synechia which should have a better prognosis. You can look at the images on the http://wwweb site at: http://www.obgyn.net/US/us_images.htm

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
