We report a case of gastroschisis in which a paraumbilical band was found at the right margin of the abdominal wall defect and extended into the antimesenteric side of the small intestine. The band consisted of 2 thin cords. Microscopically, 1 band showed a fibrous tissue, and the other 1 revealed a unique vascular structure resembling the vitelline artery and vein, suggesting that the paraumbilical band represents a remnant of the yolk stalk that failed to be incorporated into the umbilical stalk. The origin of the paraumbilical band and an associated pathogenetic hypothesis of gastroschisis are discussed.

Gastroschisis is a periumbilical, abdominal wall defect arising to the right of the umbilicus. We describe the clinical course of a left-sided gastroschisis in a term female born at 39 weeks’ gestation. To our knowledge, there have been only 14 left-sided abdominal wall defects reported in the literature. We discuss our case and review the literature to try to determine if there is any clinic difference between right- versus left-sided lesions to make recommendations as to management.

Body stalk anomaly is a rare and severe malformation syndrome in which the exact pathophysiology and trigger factors are still unknown. This is a case of a 30-year-old patient who underwent ultrasound at 9 weeks of gestation. It revealed an abnormal location of the inferior body of the embryo in the coelomic space. The findings suggested a short umbilical cord syndrome. In order to confirm the diagnosis, the patient was scheduled for a second ultrasonography at 11 weeks of gestation. The obtained images, confirmed the location of the inferior body in the coelomic space with no visible bladder, absence of the right leg, severe abdominal wall defect, consistent with an omphalocele, and a short 5 mm umbilical cord. These last ultrasonographic findings were consistent with body stalk anomaly. Because of severe malformation incompatible with life, the patient was offered termination of pregnancy. Pathologic examination confirmed the suspected pathology of body stalk anomaly.

Gastroschisis is a congenital anterior abdominal wall defect, adjacent and usually to the right of the umbilical cord insertion. Gastroschisis has no covering sac and no associated syndromes. This differentiates it from an omphalocele, which usually is covered by a membranous sac. G4P3L1D2 by date 37 weeks by scan 37 weeks (17.2) Ultrasonography S/O Gastrochisis delivered a male baby of 2.4kg and was shifted to the NICU. The exposed contents were given cellulose dressing. On post-natal day 2 baby was taken for abdominal wall repair. Baby was started on Ryle’s tube feeding and was further managed by the neonatologist.

Thoracoschisis and gastroschisis are types of ventral body wall defects. Usually thoracoabdominoschisis presents as a continuous defect. Here the authors present the case of autopsy of 18 weeks old fetus with two well-separated ventral body wall defects. Thoracoschisis was a right lateral thoracic wall defect while gastroschisis, a midline infraumblical abdominal wall defect. Through the right lateral thoracic wall parts of two organs appeared to be protruding. On dissection, 8th and 9th ribs with the liver and the lower lobe of the right lung were herniating outside the body. The right lung was haemorrhagic. Various embryological theories on ventral body wall defects have been discussed in view of the present case.

Gastroschisis is a rare congenital abdominal wall defect characterized by intestinal evisceration to the right of the umbilical stalk. In less than 6% of cases, the fascial defect closes around the herniated viscera in utero. The mechanism of fascial closure in these cases is unknown; however, the tourniquet effect on the mesenteric vasculature is thought to lead to intestinal atresia and midgut infarction. We report a case of a female neonate with a prenatal diagnosis of gastroschisis who was found to have a closed defect at the time of delivery. She required emergent operation for symptoms of intestinal obstruction and bowel ischemia.

Gastroschisis and omphalocele are congenital defects in the abdominal wall. These two conditions have different embryologic origins, but anesthetic management is similar for both. Gastroschisis is a full-thickness abdominal wall defect resulting in extrusion of abdominal viscera into the amniotic space without amniotic membrane coverage. The defect is usually to the right of the umbilicus. Omphalocele is a defect in the abdominal wall in the umbilical area in which the extruded abdominal contents (intestine, liver, spleen, bladder) are covered in a thin sac. Infants with omphalocele often have associated syndromes or chromosomal abnormalities. With either gastroschisis or omphalocele, the extruded abdominal contents must be covered and kept moist before surgical correction.

AbstractFetus in fetu (FIF) is a rare form of twinning in which an immature twin develops parasitically inside the other twin. The most frequent location of a parasitic fetus is the retroperitoneal region. A FIF located on the abdominal wall is an unusual condition, and it should be kept in mind as one of the differential diagnoses of abdominal wall masses.

Eventration is a separation of the musculoaponeurotic layers of the abdominal wall resulting in protrusion of abdominal contents, and characterized by the absence of the hernial sac and intact skin. We describe a case of chronic left sided eventration associated with deformity of the right femoral fossa in a 30-year-old female Argentine land tortoise. The animal was referred for evaluation of a soft and non-painful deformity of the left lumbar fossa and third degree lameness of the left posterior limb. Eventration of one bladder lobe and oviduct loops was diagnosed by ultrasonography. We describe the anesthetic protocol and the surgical technique used in the treatment with approach to the coelomic cavity through the prefemoral fossa, as well as the resolution of the abdominal wall defect.
