“…In their case, multiple thin and linear amniotic bands were identified, and amniotic bands were also detected attached to P65 embryo. Another similar case was reported by Chikkannaiah, Dhumale, Kangle, and Shekar (), and the case presented two different abdominal defects (abdominal wall defect and gastroschisis) and scoliosis like in P65. Generally, gut malformations in body wall defects tend to be either simple malrotation or atresias, the former of which are expected when the abdominal wall remains largely open, and the later could result from a secondary vascular insult.…”

The amniotic band syndrome is a congenital condition. It is characterized by the presence of fibrous amniotic bands that may entangle or entrap different foetal parts in utero, resulting in deformation, malformation or disruption. We report on a female piglet presenting amniotic band adherences in the right abdominal flank, several body wall defects (gastroschisis, abdominoschisis with omphalocele), severe scoliosis, anomalous umbilical cord with single umbilical artery, anal atresia, anomalous liver and absent gall bladder, hypoplastic genitalia, ankylosis and arthrogryposis in pelvic limbs, and bilateral patellar agenesia. The ethiopatogenia is discussed, as well as the comparative and embryological implications. K E Y W O R D Samniotic band syndrome, body wall defect, congenital malformation, pig

There is no consensus on the definition and classification of complex body wall anomalies (CBWA). Recently an anatomical and embryological criteria was used to classify body wall anomalies with multiple congenital anomalies in the pig (Martín-Alguacil & Avedillo, 2020a). Body stalk anomalies (BSA) were considered when there is a body wall anomaly, skeletal abnormalities, and the umbilical cord is anomalous, absent or rudimentary, and limb body wall complex (LBWC) when there is a body wall and structural limb anomalies with or without craniofacial abnormalities. The proposed

“…Reported cases so far show no predilection as to sex of the foetus or the age of parents [19], although in our material seven cases were male, with two not given, and one diagnosed with hermaphroditism. It occurs sporadically, with the normal karyotype of the foetus (in most cases), and the incidence is quoted as 1 : 10,000 to 1 : 42,000 depending on the authors [16,17].…”

We present an analysis of two first historically documented limb body wall complex (LBWC) cases and our own contemporary perinatal autopsy series of this rare complex. So far it was supposed that the first case of this complex was reported in 1685 by Paul Portal. Studying the Joachim Oelhaf's autopsy report from 1613 with attached engraving showing the neonate with multiple birth defects led our research team to a conclusion that it was genuinely the first description of LBWC in the medical literature so far. We compared the Oelhaf's case from 1613 and the Portal's autopsy report from 1685 with our series of LBWC cases dissected in the Medical University of Gdansk between 1999 and 2011. Reviewing 1100 autopsy reports performed we encountered 9 cases of this unique complex. The analysis was supported by the literature review.
