Healing Mechanism of Ruptured Fetal Membrane
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Preterm premature rupture of membranes (pPROM) typically leads to spontaneous preterm birth within several days. In a few rare cases, however, amniotic fluid leakage ceases, amniotic fluid volume is restored, and pregnancy continues until term.

Intra-uterine fetal demise caused by amniotic band syndrome after standard amniocentesis [PDF]
, 2000 The amniotic band syndrome represents a prime example of exogenous disruption of an otherwise normal feta I development. It may be a sequel of invasive diagnostic procedures such as amniocentesis or fetal blood sampling. A 38-year-old gravida II, para II
