Omphalocele: clinical outcomes in cases with normal karyotypes
Article Abstract:
A study to examine neonatal outcomes in cases of karyotypically normal cases of omphalocele reveals that in cases of ongoing omphalocele, perinatal mortality rates are low in the absence of associated anomalies or genetic defects. Intracorporeal liver is not associated with increased rates of associated anomalies.
