title: [Exomphalos. A review of 23 cases (author's transl)].
abstract: The omphalocele is very often combined with congenital malformations and is primarely to be looked at as a medical and surgical disease. The radiological examination possibly can help to decrease the rate of mortality by disclosing the malformations. These very often consist of malformations, complicating ileus and Bochdalek's hernia. We present 23 cases with omphalocele with special regard to the congenital malformations, complications postoperatively and the causes of death.
