Radius hypoplasia, radial palsy, and aplasia cutis due to amniotic band syndrome.

1999 
Amniotic band syndrome is one of the many causes of aplasia cutis congenita. It is usually seen as a constriction band surrounding a limb or as a membrane that adheres to some part of the body. This syndrome can be associated with various malformations. An infant with amniotic adhesions producing aplasia cutis, radial palsy, and hypoplasia of the radius is presented. Early treatment led to total functional recovery of the affected limb.
