Re: amniotic band?-- JoeFrom: DuBose, Terry (DuboseTerryJ@uams.edu)Mon Jan 10 08:57:13 2005
Actually, I was thinking that it is too thick for an amniotic band. Joe, does this band completely bisect the amniotic cavity? It looks like the fetal feet are in the fundus while the fetal trunk is in the lower part. I think it is a synechia if the fetus moves freely from the band. Terry J.

On usg there is this strange band on the right flank of the amniotic cavity, running antero-posteriorly. Anteriorly, I feel the band actually meets the placental edge. No fetal part is seen trapped by the band. My query-- do you agree -- is this an amniotic band? Joe. Paula S.
