Amniotic band syndrome and limb body wall complex in Europe 1980–2019

Abstract: Amniotic band syndrome (ABS) and limb body wall complex (LBWC) have an overlapping phenotype of multiple congenital anomalies and their etiology is unknown. We aimed to determine the prevalence of ABS and LBWC in Europe from 1980 to 2019 and to describe the spectrum of congenital anomalies. In addition, we investigated maternal age and multiple birth as possible risk factors for the occurrence of ABS and LBWC. We used data from the European surveillance of congenital anomalies (EUROCAT) network including data … Show more

“…The classification of significant associations as known associations or sequences was based on published literature. Ten anomaly pairs were part of the limb body wall complex [ 14 , 15 ], OEIS complex [ 16 , 17 ] or VACTERL association [ 18 , 19 ]. The association of neural tube defects and omphalocele was documented previously and explains three of the anomaly pairs found in this study [ 9 , 20 ].…”
