  • Title: Increased amniotic acetylcholinesterase activity with a fetus papyraceus and aplasia cutis congenita.
    Author: Cruikshank SH, Granados JL.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1988 Jun; 71(6 Pt 2):997-9. PubMed ID: 2453823.
    Abstract:
    A case of an infant with aplasia cutis congenita, a fetus papyraceus, abnormal maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (MSAFP), elevated amniotic alpha-fetoprotein, and positive amniotic acetylcholinesterase activity represents an uncommon abnormality. Such a case came to our attention as a result of MSAFP screening. The delivery of a neurologically intact infant in the presence of amniotic acetylcholinesterase activity is described.
