Amnion rupture sequence is considered an uncommon, sporadic condition among liveborn infants. We have examined 1,010 previable fetuses (9-20 weeks developmental age) to determine the incidence and nature of amnion rupture sequence at this stage of development. We found 18 affected fetuses (15 sponta

## Abstract **BACKGROUND**: Pena and Shokeir described the phenotype of two sisters in 1974, and subsequently their features have become recognized as a sequence of deformational changes related to decreased or absent fetal movement (fetal akinesia deformation sequence [FADS]), because of the work
## Abstract This article briefly reviews the participation of fetal compression, muscular weakness, and fetal akinesia in the genesis of the anomalies found in fetal akinesia deformation sequence (FADS) and oligohydramnios sequence (OS). Both sequences share phenotypic manifestations, such as arthr
We report on a familial case of Pena-Shokeir syndrome type I (fetal akinesia deformation sequence) born to healthy parents. The antenatal ultrasound diagnosis was based on hydramnios, restricted limb movements, decreased fetal chest movements, small chest, arthrogryposis, clubfoot, fixed extension o
