[Neural tube defect associated with thoracoabdominal evisceration].
The accompanying central nervous system (CNS) malformation in thoracoabdominal evisceration syndrome has up till now not been given much attention. Two such cases in the early fetal stages are demonstrated here, in which CNS anomalies were severely dysraphic. It is possible that babies with the evisceration syndrome are less capable of surviving when the CNS complication is severe. This may well be the reason why CNS complication of the syndrome has seldom been observed.
