Gastroschisis

ABSTRACT

We present three cases with a rare congenital anomaly called gastroschisis. One was born with whole midgut protruding out of the abdominal wall; the eviscerated gut was nonviable for which resection was done. Two cases had staged reduction by prosthetic silo made of new material. First case died after the operation, second case has survived with a big ventral hernia and third case died 8 hours after operation due to prematurity
