A retrospective survey of 358 consecutive amniocenteses was undertaken. The incidence of failure was 37 (9.6%); most commonly this was due to oligohydramnios. A suprapubic tap was the most likely to be successful, but was accompanied by premature rupture of membranes in 3.8% of the cases.

Fetal Complications of Amniocentesis
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1968Amniocentesis is an invaluable diagnostic tool. In the hands of the experienced, the complication rate is small but not unimportant.
