Abstract
Complete separation of the amnion and chorion is a rare pregnancy complication. The proposed causes for chorioamniotic separation are failure of fusion,spontaneous separation, and iatrogenically from invasive prenatal pro-cedures. We present the first reported case of delayed complete chorioamniotic separation following a motor vehicle collision. Close fol-low-up with serial fetal ultrasounds resulted in a favorable outcome
