Potter’s syndrome (also known as Potter’s sequence) is a rare congenital condition caused by severe oligohydramnios, which leads to a characteristic set of deformities and developmental abnormalities. It is primarily associated with bilateral renal agenesis (absence of both kidneys) or severe renal malformations, which result in reduced or absent amniotic fluid, limiting fetal lung development and causing physical deformities (Potter facies). These deformities include facial abnormalities, limb contractures, and pulmonary hypoplasia. facial festures includes low set ears, microagnathia, wrinkled skin and flattened nose.In a post-abortal context, this syndrome can provide important clues about fetal development and its underlying causes. This case series highlights four post-abortal cases with correlational findings that reflect Potter's syndrome and its associated pathologies.
