title: [Cantrell syndrome or the "shagreen skin" pentalogy. Apropos of 3 cases].
abstract: Three patients with incomplete forms of Cantrell syndrome underwent surgical therapy at the Department of Infantile Surgery in Strasbourg, France, between 1979 and 1990. One patient had a giant omphalocele. Another had a ventricular septal defect. Two of the three patients are alive and doing well. The nosology and prognostic factors in Cantrell syndrome are discussed.
