Gastroschisis with gastric perforation and jejunal stenosis. A rare association of anomalies.

CONCLUSIONS: We have presented the first detailed report of surgical intervention and outcomes in case of gastroschisis with prenatal gastric perforation and congenital jejunal stenosis. Early restoration of bowel continuity using primary anastomosis and primary abdominal wall closure is recommended here. More research should be focused to predict complex gastroschisis and to improve prenatal diagnosis and postnatal management, without a significant increase in morbidity and mortality.
