[Amniotic amputation (author's transl)]. 1976

K Flemmich

This report is upon a new-born child whose intra-uterine amputated right hand was found in the placenta. Besides there was a syndactylism together with the missing of the middle and end phalnges of the long fingers of the left hand. Individual observations have been reported and the question of exogenous or endogenous causes for the so-called amniotic amputation is being discussed.
