Paint and wait management of giant omphaloceles

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2019
Management of the very large defect or those in patients with severe comorbidities has evolved to the use of methods that result in escharification and eventual skin coverage over the viscera. This treatment strategy employs principles that were described in the early 20th century.

External compression as initial management of giant omphaloceles

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1996
The authors describe a noninvasive technique for the management of giant omphaloceles. Two patients with giant omphaloceles were managed with external compression. Dry sterile dressings were used, buttressed by an Ace bandage in the first case and by a handcrafted Velcro abdominal binder in the second. The binder was tightened every 2 or 3 days. Renal,

Giant Omphalocele

JAMA, 1963
THE OPERATION devised by Gross, in 1948, has made it possible to save the lives of many infants with enormous omphaloceles, in whom a primary closure of the abdominal wall in all of its layers is out of the question. Pointing out that forceful approximation of the widely separated recti resulted in intolerable increase in intra-abdominal pressure and ...

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 ...

Predictors of mortality in neonates with giant omphaloceles

Minerva Pediatrics, 2018
This analysis performed a review of giant-omphaloceles to determine the predictors of mortality.PubMed and KoBson databases were searched for terms "giant," "omphalocele," and "mortality." Primary end points included mortality correlation with gestational age (GA), birth weight (BW), eviscerated organs, associated anomalies and management. To calculate

Ex utero intrapartum treatment for giant congenital omphalocele

World Journal of Pediatrics, 2018
To determine whether ex utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT) is an appropriate approach for managing fetuses antenatally diagnosed with giant congenital omphaloceles.We retrospectively reviewed patients with omphaloceles who underwent either an EXIT procedure or a traditional repair surgery. Basic and clinical parameters including gender, gestational age,

Amnion inversion in the treatment of giant omphalocele

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1991
Operative repair of giant omphaloceles remains a technical challenge to close the wide abdominal wall defect. Currently, most surgeons remove the amnion to approximate the linea alba and/or skin edges or to suture prosthetic material to the abdominal wall and cover the defect with skin flaps.

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.

Nonsurgical (Conservative) Treatment of Giant Omphalocele

Clinical Pediatrics, 1987
Between January 1970 and December 1984, 65 patients with a congenital anterior abdominal wall defect were admitted to the Pediatric Surgical Center of the St. Radboud Hospital, Nijmegen, The Netherlands. There were 39 cases of omphalocele. Ten had giant omphalocele, defined as omphalocele that could not be closed primarily.
