Shoulder duplication in constriction band syndrome: a case report
Authors
Abstract:
Abstract A 2.5 year old girl is presented with both hands constriction bands leading to distal amputations and the rare deformity of shoulder duplication in the right side accompanying constriction skin marking over the affected shoulder. The cephalomedial scapula articulated with the clavicle and the caudolateral scapula articulated with humeral head. The most important physical finding which could explain the pathophysiology of this rare anomaly, was constriction band marking over the right shoulder. Shoulder range of motion was limited but still functional and no surgical intervention was required for the scapular duplication.

We report a case of congenital constriction band of abdomen associated with limb pseudarthrosis. The constriction band around the abdomen, though may cause initial difficulty with ventilation and parental distress, does not interfere with feeding, bowel movements, and growth. It heals spontaneously with supportive treatment though surgery may be needed in some cases.

The cause of Congenital Constriction Band Syndrome has been in debate over 300 years. There are two main theories as to what could be its true cause. The two main theories discussed are the intrinsic and extrinsic theories. This condition may cause inhibiting or life-threatening conditions as well as secondary deformities. To correct or help add function to these conditions there are surgical o...

A report is presented of a 45 day old female infant with congenital amputation of the great toe, complete constriction bands of the lower leg and fingers all of which are explained by congenital amniotic band syndrome. There is a brief review of the literature on the pathology and possible aetiology.

Amniotic Band Syndrome is a sporadic congenital disorder that may result in constriction bands, amputation and multiple craniofacial, visceral and body wall defects. Its incidence is estimated at approximately 1:5000 to 1:10,000 pregnancies. Band formation most frequently affects the distal segments, including the hand. We report a case of constriction amniotic bands involving the trunk.
