<abstract language="eng">Amniotic Fluid is essential for the growth and development of the growing fetus. It is maximum at around thirty seven weeks of pregnancy and then gradually decreases. Decrease in the amniotic fluid is associated with maternal obstetric complication like PIH, IUGR and increases the risk of fetal morbidity and mortality. This is a prospective study carried out in the department of obstetrics and gynecology at Manipal Teaching Hospital, Pokhara, Nepal. Sixty women with isolated oligohydraminos beyond 34 weeks of gestation were included in the study. In this study, meconium stained liquor, non reassuring heart rate and the rate of cesarean section was observed to be high in isolated oligohydraminos but however, there was no NICU admission and neonatal mortality in this study.</abstract>
