What is Treatment with Amniopatch of Premature Rupture of Membranes After First‐trimester Chorionic Villus Sampling about?
## Abstract ## Objective To assess the amniopatch procedure when premature rupture of membranes occurs after first‐trimester chorionic villus sampling (CVS). ## Study Design From May 2001 to June 2004, the amniopatch procedure was offered in cases of premature rupture of membranes after CVS when severe oligohydramnios was present (largest vertical pocket < 2 cm) and persistent (more than 1 week). ## Results The amniopatch was placed in five pregnancies at 12–18 weeks of gestation, resulting in amniotic fluid restoration in all but one pregnancy. In three pregnancies, fetal demise was observed at 1, 2 and 36 days after the procedure. The last procedure resulted in a healthy newborn. ## Conclusion Although the amniopatch restored normal amniotic fluid levels in all cases, 4 of the 5 cases resulted in fetal demise.
