[Gastroschisis: a review of five cases (author's transl)].
Five cases of gastroschisis operated between September 1975 and May 1980 are described. The first two of these died but the other three maintain normal health at eleven, ten and four months of life. The embryological theory relevant to our cases and features of differential diagnosis with omphalocele are described. Authors stress prognosis importance of reintroduction of eviscerated intestine with minimal manipulation, careful attention to parenteral feeding, antibiotherapy and re-establishment of body temperature.
