dc.description.abstract | Twenty-three cases of omphalocele or gastroschisis managed at the Pediatric Surgical Department of Juntendo University Medical School, Tokyo, Japan during the period 1973-78 are analysed. There were 5 cases with hernia into the cord, 13 with omphalocele proper and 6 with gastroschists. The overall mortality was 26970. Both omphalocele proper and hernia into the cord had high incidence of concomitant malformation. Survival could be closely correlated with severity of associated congenital anormalies. Patient with birth weight lower than 2000gm and/or with defect larger than 8 cm was also at great risk. T.P.N. and assisted respiration evolved the management of omphalocele and gastroschists. | en |
