Management of Abdominal Wall Defects
Surgical Clinics of North America, 2022Congenital abdominal wall defects vary from abdominal wall hernias to severe congenital structural anomalies that include gastroschisis, omphalocele, and prune belly syndrome. The conditions often carry various associated anomalies and require multidisciplinary treatment approaches. Complex surgical reconstructive techniques are frequently required and

Familial abdominal wall defects
American Journal of Medical Genetics, 1989AbstractWe report 2 families, each having multiple sibs with abdominal wall defects. In family 1, normal parents gave birth to identical (monochorionic, diamniotic) twins. This is the first reported case of gastroschisis occurring in monozygotic twins. In family 2, a normal mother gave birth to a son with omphalocele.

The frequent use of prenatal diagnostic techniques including ultrasound and maternal serum alpha‐fetoprotein has increasingly led to detection of abdominal wall defects before birth. This prenatal detection creates the opportunity to influence neonatal outcome by alteration in management of pregnancy or delivery. The optimal management of an individual

Anatomy and embryology of abdominal wall defects
Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2022Abdominal wall defects are one of the most frequently encountered human congenital anomalies. They are seen in as many as 1 in 2,000 live births with evidence to suggest that their incidence is increasing. While often discussed together abdominal wall defects consist mainly of two entities namely gastroschisis and omphalocele.

Summary Herniation of viscera through defects of the abdominal wall can be categorised into gastroschisis, omphalocele, and the rarer bladder or cloacal exstrophy. Many of the principles of diagnosis and management are similar for these conditions. Gastroschisis is a small defect positioned to the right of the umbilicus.

At about 8 weeks gestation, the enlarging liver causes the displacement of other viscera outside the umbilical ring, to return by 10 weeks. Failure to do this results in exomphalos. Thus, it should be covered with sac and Wharton’s jelly with insertion of the cord at its apex.

Risk factors for abdominal wall defects
Congenital Anomalies, 2019AbstractIn the last decades, the prevalence of gastroschisis (GS) has increased worldwide. The purpose of this study was to identify maternal risk factors explaining the described gain and to identify differences between GS and omphalocele (OC). A case‐control design was used to compare GS (n = 36) and OC (n = 18) mothers to control group (CG; n = 30 ...
