Ileal atresia associated with omphalocele

Abstract

Omphalocele and Gastroschisis are the two primary most common congenital abdominal wall surgical problems encountered in neonates.Omphalocele has a relatively high incidence of associated defects, the severity and number of which determine the outcomes. The occurrence of intestinal atresia, mostly jejunal and ileal, has been documented in gastroschisis, but there are few literatures describing small bowel atresia associated with omphalocele.
