--- abstract: Gastroschisis represents a herniation of abdominal contents through a paramedian full-thickness abdominal fusion defect without involving the umbilical cord. Evisceration usually only contains intestinal loops and has no surrounding membrane unlike in ophalocoele. It is unusual for a newborn born with gastroschisis to have other serious birth defects and neonates have better prognosis than those with an omphalocele. Very rarely gastroschisis is associated with herniation of major viscus and their presence makes the prognosis worst. This case is reported because of its rare association with extra-corporal liver and limb aplasia. altloc: - http://www.calicutmedicaljournal.org/2005/3/3/e2/ chapter: ~ commentary: ~ commref: ~ confdates: ~ conference: ~ confloc: ~ contact_email: ~ creators_id: [] creators_name: - family: Hebbar given: Shripad honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: N given: Pratapkumar honourific: '' lineage: '' date: 2005-09 date_type: published datestamp: 2006-09-08 department: ~ dir: disk0/00/00/51/33 edit_lock_since: ~ edit_lock_until: ~ edit_lock_user: ~ editors_id: [] editors_name: [] eprint_status: archive eprintid: 5133 fileinfo: /style/images/fileicons/application_pdf.png;/5133/1/An_unusual_case_of_Foetal_Gastroschisis_with_Limb_aplasia_and_Extra%2Dcorporal_liver.pdf full_text_status: public importid: ~ institution: ~ isbn: ~ ispublished: pub issn: ~ item_issues_comment: [] item_issues_count: 0 item_issues_description: [] item_issues_id: [] item_issues_reported_by: [] item_issues_resolved_by: [] item_issues_status: [] item_issues_timestamp: [] item_issues_type: [] keywords: ~ lastmod: 2011-03-11 08:56:35 latitude: ~ longitude: ~ metadata_visibility: show note: ~ number: 3 pagerange: ~ pubdom: FALSE publication: Calicut Medical Journal publisher: ~ refereed: FALSE referencetext: ~ relation_type: [] relation_uri: [] reportno: ~ rev_number: 12 series: ~ source: ~ status_changed: 2007-09-12 17:07:14 subjects: - calcut succeeds: ~ suggestions: ~ sword_depositor: ~ sword_slug: ~ thesistype: ~ title: 'An unusual case of Foetal Gastroschisis with Limb aplasia and Extra-corporal liver ' type: journale userid: 6641 volume: 3
