Vernix in amniotic fluid: sonographic detection.

L M Hill, R Breckle.   

Abstract

We investigated the possibility of using sonography to detect vernix caseosa, a complex fatty substance derived from desquamated epithelial cells and sebaceous material. In one of our cases, the sonographic appearance of vernix was dramatic, and its presence was confirmed at amniocentesis.
