Exomphalos (Omphalocele)

Prenatal Diagnosis, 1998
Exomphalos affects approximately 3 in 10,000 births and can arise from a number of developmental insults. The clinical outcome is dependent upon the associated structural and chromosomal anomalies and the gestation at delivery. Accurate antenatal ultrasound diagnosis and karyotyping are important and allow informed prenatal and postnatal management ...

Omphalocele In a Neonate

West African Journal of Radiology, 2005
Omphalocele is a rare congenital amornaly with incidence of about 2.5 in every 4000 to 10,000 live births in the general opulation . The ventral abdominal defect is usually midline and the eviscerated organs through the defect form a sac at the apex of which is inserted the umbilical cord stump.

Selective Management of Omphalocele

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1982
Abstract Fifty-four patients with omphalocele were reviewed. In infants who weighed over 2,500 g, had no associated anomalies, and had defects of the abdominal wall smaller than 5 cm, the survival rate was 100 percent. Mortality occurred in infants with severe associated congenital anomalies, with a low birth weight, and with larger defects of the ...

Omphalocele: A prognostic classification

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1981
A classification for infants born with an omphalocele is proposed that is based on the recognition of four syndromes and two common associated anomalies. The recognition of these syndromes and anomalies in our newborns with an omphalocele provided a better estimate of expected mortality and morbidity than the size of the omphalocele, preoperative ...

Caring for the Newborn with an Omphalocele

Neonatal Network, 2006
An omphalocele, a ventral defect of the umbilical ring resulting in herniation of the abdominal viscera, is one of the most common congenital abdominal wall defects seen in the newborn. Omphaloceles occur in 1 in 3,000 to 10,000 live births. Associated malformations such as chromosomal, cardiac, or genitourinary abnormalities are common.

The problem of “giant” omphalocele

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1980
"Giant" omphalocele implies an abdominal wall defect that is 5 cm or more in diameter with the liver in a central position. Giant omphalocele is often associated with other significant anomalies. Technically it is often difficult to close the abdominal wall defect and a staged repair utilizing prosthetic materials may be necessary.

Etiological study of omphalocele

Human Genetics, 1981
The epidemiological, teratological and genetic data on 134 index patients with omphalocele (79 isolated and 55 multiple ones) and on 134 matched controls born in Hungary 1970-1976 were studied medical records and by retrospective interview. The stillbirth rate and infant mortality are significantly higher, and there is intrauterine weight retardation ...

Gastroschisis and Omphalocele

2019
Gastroschisis and omphalocele are the most common congenital abdominal wall defects. Very commonly encountered associated chromosomal abnormalities and structural malformations significantly modify treatment strategies in the patients with omphalocele, while congenital cardiac defects are currently observed more frequently in gastroschisis than ...

Chromosomal abnormalities in fetuses with omphalocele. Significance of omphalocele contents.

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 1989
Twenty-six consecutive fetuses with a sonographically detectable omphalocele and known karyotype were reviewed to identify risk factors that might be associated with chromosomal abnormalities. Risk factors that were analyzed included contents of the omphalocele sac, maternal age, fetal sex, sonographically detectable concurrent anomalies, and any major

Prenatally ruptured omphalocele

The American Journal of Surgery, 1968
Abstract A case of large prenatally ruptured omphalocele in an infant is presented. Associated problems included atresia of the ascending colon and plugging of the bowel with thick meconium. The usual malrotation and shortness of the bowel were present.
