The amniotic band syndrome is a collection of fetal malformations associated with fibrous bands that appear to entangle or entrap various fetal parts in utero, leading to deformation, malformation, or disruption. This syndrome is given many names yet follows a clearly defined clinical pattern. Misdiagnosis and inappropriate family counseling are chronic features. This article reviews the clinical features of the amniotic band syndrome, its epidemiology, and the status of prenatal and neonatal diagnosis. The spectrum of malformations associated with amniotic bands is summarized and illustrated. Major etiologic theories are examined. It is recommended that the clinician involved in the delivery of any infant manifesting elements of this unusual combination of defects seek specialized consultation in the pursuit of an accurate and precise diagnosis and appropriate genetic counseling.
羊膜带综合征是一组与纤维带相关的胎儿畸形，这些纤维带似乎在子宫内缠绕或困住胎儿的各个部位，导致变形、畸形或中断。该综合征有许多名称，但遵循明确的临床模式。误诊和不适当的家庭咨询是长期存在的问题。本文回顾了羊膜带综合征的临床特征、流行病学以及产前和新生儿诊断情况。总结并举例说明了与羊膜带相关的畸形范围。研究了主要的病因理论。建议参与接生任何表现出这种异常缺陷组合特征的婴儿的临床医生寻求专业咨询，以获得准确精确的诊断和适当的遗传咨询。
