“…Masmoudi et al report a fracture of the tibia and fibula that was caused in late pregnancy at the site of the annular defect due to the increasing mechanical stress on the bones related to fetal growth within the confines of the uterine cavity. They have treated their case only with immobilization and report good outcome [11].…”

Congenital constriction ring syndrome (CCRS) is a well-described pathological entity that is caused by fibrous bands that entrap parts of the fetus. The manifestations of this syndrome may vary a lot. We present a case of an almost intrauterine amputation of a fetus’s upper limb. Our case is infrequent because the constriction band caused a fracture of the fetus's forearm during pregnancy. Both the band and the fracture resulted in ischemia to the hand and a salvage procedure was applied after birth. Not many authors have reported fractures due to constriction ring bands and even less have reported fractures of the upper limb. A literature review of this rare entity was conducted.

“…Лечение переломов бедренных костей у новорожденных, как правило, консервативное [40,42]. Для этих целей применяют, как уже указывалось выше, хорошо зарекомендовавшие себя консервативные методы [49][50][51]. В то же время в литературе встречаются публикации, посвященные оперативным методам лечения данного вида повреждений у новорожденных.…”

“…Допустимыми отклонениями оси бедренного сегмента принято считать вальгус до 3° и рекурвацию до 5° [50]. Если же регистрируют деформации более указанных величин, то придерживаются выжидательной тактики с динамическим наблюдением за пациентом и полагаются на компенсаторные возможности его организма [11,51].…”

Background. Medical information on the provision of emergency trauma care to newborns with fractures of tubular bones is scarce. Aim. This scientific review aimed to inform children's orthopedic traumatologists regarding the main mechanisms of injury, methods of diagnosis, and treatment of fractures of long tubular bones in newborns. Material and methods. The article presents a systematic analysis of 60 scientific works of domestic and foreign authors on topical aspects of fractures of long tubular bones in newborns from 1986 to 2018. For writing the literature review, we used modern electronic databases of medical information: PubMed, MEDLINE, Ulrich’s Periodicals Directory, DOAJ, Cyberleninka, and еLibrary. Results and discussion. Similarly from the analysis of scientific publications, the main mechanism of fractures of limb segments in newborns is intranatal trauma, in which the child can receive both during birth through the birth canal and during cesarean section. The predisposing factors for obtaining bone fractures are intrauterine osteopenia, congenital diseases of the digestive system, and prematurity. Fractures are diagnosed on the basis of clinical examination and results of ultrasound and X-ray studies of the injured limb. In the treatment of limb bone fractures, both conservative and surgical methods are used. In recent years, a tendency has been clearly observed in scientific publications, highlighting the ever-widening introduction into clinical practice of operational methods for stabilizing fractures of long tubular bones in newborns, including using the techniques of transosseous osteosynthesis. Conclusion. The presented article fills the existing gap of summarizing scientific publications on the treatment of fractures of limbs in newborns.

“…Amniotic band syndrome is characterised by various congenital defects due to constriction of one or more parts of the foetus by fibrous bands derived from the amniotic sac. 1 It is a complex disorder characterized by several abnormalities including constriction band syndrome, adhesions, mutilations and amniotic deformities. 2,3 The frequency is estimated to be around one case per 10,000-15,000 births.…”

Amniotic band syndrome is a pathology affecting the extremities of the fetus. It is uncommon with rates around 1 per 10,000 births. The pathophysiology is poorly understood until now with several theories reported in the literature. The diagnosis is most often made at birth. We reported a case of a 40 year old patient with no particular history who had consulted for spontaneous premature rupture of membranes in a 20 weeks pregnancy. The diagnostic of amniotic band syndrome was made after the delivery with amputation of a limb, amniotic syndactilia and deformation of the right foot in equinovarus.
