Amniotic Band Syndrome (ABS) is a complex congenital condition caused by strands of amniotic sac associated with a broad spectrum of anomalies. It is also known as amniotic band sequence, Amniotic Deformity, Adhesions, Mutilations (ADAM) complex, congenital constriction rings, constriction band syndrome, limb body wall complex, Streeter anomaly, Streeter dysplasia, Annular grooves, Congenital amputation, Pseudoainhulm[1]. The abnormalities vary from isolated to multiple bizarre disfiguring complications involving craniofacial region, limbs and visceral organs. General anaesthesia is the preferred choice for surgical correction of anomalies.
