Amniotic band sequence or syndrome, is the term applied to a wide range of congenital anomalies, as a group of congenital birth defects caused by entrapment of fetal parts (usually a limb or digits) in fibrous amniotic bands while in utero. Before the baby was born, the body parts shows signs of arm, fingers, etc, that were caught and estrangled. Amniotic band syndrome can cause a number of different birth defects depending on which body part(s) is affected. Amniotic band sequence (ABS) is a rare condition caused by strands of the amniotic sac that separate and entrangle digits, limbs or other parts of the fetus. This constriction can cause a variety of problems depending on where the strands are located and how trightly they are wrapped. ABS can cause a broad spectrum of anomalies ranging from simple band constrictions to major craniofacialand visceral defects. This causes deformations, malformation and disruption, that results in incapacity or death. The aims of the present report, were to present a review of the literature concerning with this pathology, describing the clinical characteristics, etiology, diagnosis and prognosis, in order to improve the efficacy of the prenatal management
