Management of giant omphalocele with a simple and efficient nonsurgical silo

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2021
Giant omphaloceles can be a challenge for pediatric surgeons and neonatologists worldwide. It is a rare and low-frequency congenital anomaly with no standardized management schemes or treatment protocols. Over the past few decades, we have developed a simple and efficient staged management for giant omphaloceles that allows definitive closure in the ...

The use of tissue expanders in the closure of a giant omphalocele

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2004
Giant omphalocele is associated with a high degree of visceroabdominal disproportion, which prohibits safe primary closure. Conventional treatment options include (1) topical therapy with epithelialization followed by secondary ventral hernia repair and (2) staged reduction using a SILASTIC(R) (Dow Corning, Midland, MI) chimney.

Early reconstruction of the abdominal wall in giant omphalocele

British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2004
Omphalocele is the most common congenital defect of the abdominal wall. Mortality rate is between 20 and 70% and early closure of the abdominal wall, within 10 days of life, is vital to the successful outcome of the surgical treatment. The authors describe the use of two bipedicled flaps of abdominal skin to correct the defect of the midline as soon as

External silo reduction of the unruptured giant omphalocele

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1987
Construction of an external silo dressing over the intact omphalocele membrane allows complete reduction of the giant omphalocele with enlargement of the abdominal cavity before surgical intervention, so that primary closure of the abdominal wall can be achieved.

Left-lung-collapse bronchial deformation in giant omphalocele

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2001
Five infants with giant omphalocele had persistent collapse of the left lung and required prolonged respiratory support. Narrowing of the left main bronchus, reversible with positive end-expiratory pressure, was identified radiographically in 3 infants, and we postulate that this relates to distortion of the bronchus within the constraints of the ...

Use of a Vacuum-Assisted Device in a Neonate With a Giant Omphalocele

Advances in Neonatal Care, 2010
Wound healing is a complex process that can be even more challenging in neonatal and pediatric patients. Infants and children have special characteristics such as skin immaturity, a high body surface to weight ratio, sensitivity to pain, increased potential for percutaneous absorption of medication, and an immature immune system that adds to the ...
