Overview

Amniotic fluid is the protective liquid that surrounds the developing fetus within the amniotic sac, cushioning the fetus, enabling movement, supporting lung and musculoskeletal development, and maintaining a stable temperature throughout pregnancy. Within the field of embryology, research on the amniotic environment connects closely to fetal physiology, prenatal diagnosis, and intrauterine intervention. Embryology publishes peer-reviewed, open-access work spanning fetal development, prenatal conditions, and obstetric care, including studies such as "The Evolution of Fetal Surgery," a report on the "Resolution of Fetal Hydrops in a Case of Congenital Pulmonary Airway Malformation," and an analysis of the rate and maternal and fetal outcomes of cesarean delivery in a hospital setting in Ethiopia. These articles reflect the journal's coverage of fetal medicine, developmental anatomy, and clinical outcomes relevant to the prenatal period. Readers interested in fetal development, prenatal diagnosis, and intrauterine intervention will find peer-reviewed, open-access studies relevant to amniotic fluid.
