Omphalocele associated with gastroschisis defect covered with skin.
Omphalocele and gastroschisis are distinct malformations in many aspects. Anatomical and pathologic findings in both conditions are usually typical and very frequent. Unusual clinical presentations of some cases may contribute to clearing up questions about the embryological origins of gastroschisis and omphalocele. We describe a rare case of omphalocele associated with gastroschisis defect covered with skin.
