INTRODUCTION: Amniotic band syndrome is a rare congenital disorder with clinical 
presentation of constricting bands in different parts of extremities or whole 
extremities. Conservative or surgical treatment is provided depending on the 
type and severity of the anomaly.
CASE OUTLINE: The paper presents the case of a neonate patient with constriction 
bands localized on the left leg. During the second week of life, a surgery was 
indicated, and a single-stage multiple Z-plasty was performed to correct the 
anomalies on the left lower leg. Postoperative edema in the distal part of the 
lower leg was easily managed by incisions and drainage. Two months later, the 
correction of the stricture of the left thigh was managed using the same 
procedure. The postoperative course was uneventful and the outcome was 
satisfactory after a two-year follow-up.
CONCLUSION: Evaluation of a patient with amniotic band syndrome, as well as 
diagnosis, monitoring, treatment and postoperative care, should always be 
multidisciplinary. A single-stage correction approach provided satisfactory both 
functional and aesthetic results. Given many morphological variations of the 
syndrome, a decision on the strategy of treatment should be made individually 
for each patient.
