Presentation

Surgical treatment in the presented case focused only on umbilicus without exploration of the abdominal cavity and appeared to be sufficient. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Entire Body System

  • Hypothermia

    Immediate dangers are drying of the viscera, hypothermia and dehydration due to evaporation of water from the exposed viscera, and infection of the peritoneal surfaces. The estimated incidence is 1 in 3000 to 5000 live births. [merckmanuals.com]

    Immediate dangers are drying of the viscera, hypothermia and dehydration due to evaporation of water from the exposed viscera, and infection of the peritoneal surfaces. The estimated incidence is 1 in 3000 live births. [msdmanuals.com]

    Using established standards and conduct therapeutic such as: Prophylaxis-anti-infection using antibiotics soon after birth prophylaxis-anti-anti-hypothermia and hypovolemia using sterile plastic bags protecting viscera exposed. [openstarts.units.it]

    Immediate repair and closure lessens problems such as infection, hypothermia and acidosis. Primary closure is possible when the bowel can be returned to the abdominal cavity (80% of cases). [exxcellence.org]

  • Weakness

    DOCTORS: Click here for the Professional Version Click here for the Professional Version In abdominal wall defects, the muscles surrounding the abdominal cavity are weak or develop holes. [merckmanuals.com]

    In abdominal wall defects, the muscles surrounding the abdominal cavity are weak or develop holes, allowing the intestines to spill out. The two main abdominal wall defects are omphalocele and gastroschisis. [msdmanuals.com]

    Sometimes intestines and other organs protrude through a weak spot or opening in the wall. This is called a hernia. In some cases, the intestines or other organs protrude into the umbilical cord connecting baby to mother. [childrenshospital.vanderbilt.org]

    Failure of migration and fusion of the lateral folds of the embryonic disc on the 3rd-4th week of gestation. o Disruption of the right omphalomesenteric artery as midgut returns to abdomen by the 10th week causing ischemia of the abdominal wall and weakness [slideshare.net]

  • Surgical Procedure

    The procedure of staged application of pericard patches is described. Delayed staged closure has the advantage of avoiding multiple surgical procedures in the neonatal period and reduces morbidity in the management of giant omphaloceles. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    The surgical procedure also called omphalocele repair/closure or gastroschisis repair/closure is not overly complicated. The next ultrasound, at 26 weeks, revealed the omphalocele had healed itself. [fi.bab.la]

    Then, the surgical team will then come to assess the omphalocele. Babies with a small omphalocele can usually have one surgical procedure to remove the sac and close the hole in the abdominal wall. [mottchildren.org]

    Babies may need oxygen, a ventilator or a tracheostomy, a surgical procedure that creates a hole in the windpipe so they can breathe. [foxnews.com]

  • Inflammation

    Before birth, because the intestines are not covered by a sac, they may be damaged by exposure to amniotic fluid, which causes inflammation. [merckmanuals.com]

    Baby with bladder exstrophy and epispadias; note the appearance of the bladder mucosa, indicating chronic inflammation. Another view demonstrating the epispadias shown in the previous image. [emedicine.medscape.com]

    Inflammation of the tissue that lines the wall of the abdomen and covers the abdominal organs. Organ injury. Problems with digestion and absorbing nutrients from food, if a baby has a lot of damage to the small bowel. [ufhealth.org]

  • Multiple Congenital Anomalies

    Trisomy 18 or Edwards syndrome is a rare chromosomal anomaly, associated with mild to severe intellectual disabilities and multiple congenital anomalies. Trisomies 18 and 13 are lethal, only 5-10% of patients surviving the first year of life. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Omphalocele can occur in certain multiple congenital anomaly patterns with neural tube defects, for which a protective effect of multivitamins with folic acid has been demonstrated. Methods. [pediatrics.aappublications.org]

    In a recent review, 10 of 31 cases of omphalocele (OC) and 4 of 11 cases of gastroschisis (GS) cases, multiple congenital anomalies were diagnosed. The birth weight was below the 10th percentile in 23% of OC and 36% of GS cases. [hawaii.edu]

Respiratoric

  • Cough

    It appears as a skin-covered protrusion at the umbilicus during crying, coughing, or straining. The hernia generally consists of omentum or small intestine. [icd10data.com]

Gastrointestinal

  • Intestinal Atresia

    atresia, perforation, necrosis, or volvulus. [bestpractice.bmj.com]

    Intestinal anomalies, including Meckel's diverticulum and intestinal atresia, were only seen in patients with small omphaloceles. Most cardiac anomalies were associated with large omphaloceles (34.6% vs 3.7%; P = .01). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    We discuss the association between the size of abdominal wall defect and formation of intestinal atresia, and etiopathogenesis of intestinal atresia and other gastrointestinal anomalies in omphalocele minor. [omicsonline.org]

  • Diarrhea

    IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a disorder characterized most commonly by cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, and diarrhea. [gastroinflorida.com]

Jaw & Teeth

  • Macroglossia

    Listernick: Does anything need to be done about this child’s macroglossia? Dr. Reynolds: This tongue is not particularly large in the grand scheme of macroglossia. [healio.com]

    BWS is a condition where the baby has a large tongue, (macroglossia), which may interfere with breathing, swallowing, and speaking. [nationwidechildrens.org]

    The five common features of BWS include: macroglossia, macrosomia, a midline abdominal wall defect, ear creases/pits and neonatal hypoglycemia. At least two of these five common features is required to a make a diagnosis of BWS. [iame.com]

    Neither the proband nor any other affected family members had evidence of hypoglycaemia, macroglossia, seizure disorder, or birth defects. [doi.org]

Neurologic

  • Irritability

    IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a disorder characterized most commonly by cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, and diarrhea. [gastroinflorida.com]

    The inflammation irritates the intestine, which can result in complications such as problems with movements of the digestive system, scar tissue, and intestinal obstruction. [merckmanuals.com]

    This means amniotic fluid can irritate the intestines. They can end up swollen or twisted. The causes of gastroschisis and omphalocele aren’t well understood. [healthline.com]

Urogenital

  • Amenorrhea

    Etiology Omphalocele is due to the defective closure of the abdominal wall in the embryo before 9 weeks of gestation, i.e. 11 weeks of amenorrhea. Diagnostic methods Diagnosis is usually made before birth by ultrasound. [orpha.net]

Workup

A genetic workup is justified in most cases. Pacilli et al 2 reported associated malformations in up to 50% of infants with GO. [dovepress.com]

X-Ray

  • Atelectasis

    Assisted ventilation should be applied to maintain adequate lung volume with even distribution of tidal volume to avoid trauma from atelectasis and lung injury. [intechopen.com]

Treatment

The treatment and the hospitalization of the child are quite long. The authors present a case--a newborn with a omphalocele and share their experience. This method gives good results, shorten the treatment and the stay in hospital. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis

In our case of isolated omphalocele, the overall prognosis was good. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis The prognosis of an isolated omphalocele - when it is not giant - is good if surgery can be early performed in good conditions. [orpha.net]

Smaller omphaloceles are thought to carry a worse prognosis due to increased risk of associated abnormalities. [radiopaedia.org]

Etiology

OBJECTIVE: The omphalocele-exstrophy-imperforate anus-spinal defects (OEIS) complex is a rare variant of the bladder exstrophy epispadias complex with in most cases unknown etiology. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology Omphalocele is due to the defective closure of the abdominal wall in the embryo before 9 weeks of gestation, i.e. 11 weeks of amenorrhea. Diagnostic methods Diagnosis is usually made before birth by ultrasound. [orpha.net]

Epidemiology

Author information 1 Division of Pediatric Surgery, Department of Surgery, Seattle Children's Hospital, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98105-0371, USA. [email protected] Abstract The embryology, epidemiology, associated anomalies [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Summary Epidemiology Prevalence is estimated at about 1/8,500 births. Associated malformations affect almost 1 in 2 patients and include in particular craniofacial and cardiac malformations or chromosomal anomalies (trisomies 13, 18, 21). [orpha.net]

These findings await replication from additional studies to confirm the findings, generate more precise estimates, and detail possible mechanisms of actions. omphalocele epidemiology prevention vitamins malformation pregnancy Received October 1, 2001. [pediatrics.aappublications.org]

Pathophysiology

Rodent models of abdominal wall defects (AWD) may provide insight into the pathophysiology of these conditions including gut dysfunction in gastroschisis, or pulmonary hypoplasia in exomphalos. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology During normal development of the intestines, the midgut begins to elongate at around 6 weeks gestation. [teachmepaediatrics.com]

OBJECTIVES • Background • Epidemiology • Etiology • Pathophysiology • Clinical Features • Diagnosis • Management • Prognosis 3. [slideshare.net]

Pathophysiology [ edit ] Exomphalos is caused by a failure of the ventral body wall to form and close the naturally occurring umbilical hernia that occurs during embryonic folding which is a process of embryogenesis. [4] The normal process of embryogenesis [en.wikipedia.org]

These data support the need to better understand the underlying pathophysiology of pulmonary hypertension, so therapy can target its causes in omphalocele infants. [intechopen.com]

Prevention

After birth, clamping of the umbilical cord away from the base prevented iatrogenic atresia of the ileum. Surgical treatment had to be arranged during the first days of life. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention Can I prevent an omphalocele? Researchers are studying possible ways to prevent omphaloceles. It’s unclear if there’s anything you can do during pregnancy to avoid an omphalocele. [my.clevelandclinic.org]
