• Abstract

  Gastroschisis is a congenital malformation characterized by a defect in the closure of the abdominal wall, with evisceration of abdominal organs (mainly of the intestine) by a small opening located laterally to the umbilical cord. Although the survival of newborns with gastroschisis is around 90%, morbidity is still high with long periods of hospitalization. In the last decades, gastrosch…

  Fetal gastroschisis: epigenetic profile study, AP.R

• Abstract

  Fetal gastroschisis is an abdominal wall defect associated with extrusion of internal organs through the defect and direct exposure to the amniotic fluid, without peritoneal membrane covering the exteriorized content. The incidence of gastroschisis varies from 2-3 to 4-5 to 10,000 births, however with significantly increase in the last decades. Despite elevated postnatal survival rates, a…

  Fetal gastroschisis: maternal nutritional evaluation and serum fatty acids profile, AP.R

• Abstract

  This is a prospective study envolving multiple pregnancies delivering at Clínica Obstetrica do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da USP. The aim of the study is to evaluate and compared immunoglobulin concentrations in maternal serum and umbilical cord after birth.

(Only some records are available in English at this moment)

• Abstract

  Gastroschisis is an abdominal wall defect, and despite the excellent post surgical prognosis has a higher risk of intra uterine death compared to other fetal malformations. Therefore fetal wellbeing monitoring is performed weekly in these pregnancies from 32 weeks onwards. In the literature search we did not find studies examining the fetal movements (FM) pattern in fetuses with gastrosch…
