Thoracoschisis associated with Limb Body Wall Complex
Thoracoschisis is a rare condition. A female newborn presented with right-sided thoracoschisis, associated with diaphragmatic hernia and protrusion of an accessory liver lobe through the chest wall defect along with deformity of the right forearm and hand duplication. Diagnosed as part of the limb-body wall complex (LBWC), management included resection of the exteriorized liver lobe followed by...
متن کاملUnderstanding the etiology of ventral body wall defects
Introduction Ventral body wall (VBW) defects are observed in 1 in 3000 births. The main types of defects include body wall dysplasia, gastroschisis, omphalocele and primary thoracoabdominoschisis. There is little evidence suggesting that genetic changes are associated with these defects. An important number of these occur as a result of exposure to chemical pollutants or radiation. In this proj...
متن کاملPossible Genetic Origin of Limb-Body Wall Complex
Limb body wall complex (LBWC) is characterized by multiple severe congenital malformations including an abdominal and/or thoracic wall defect covered by amnion, a short or absent umbilical cord with the placenta almost attached to the anterior fetal wall, intestinal malrotation, scoliosis, and lower extremity anomalies. There is no consensus about the etiology of LBWC and many cases with abnorm...
متن کاملBody wall morphogenesis: Limb-genesis interferes with body wall-genesis via its influence on the abaxial somite derivatives
The vertebrate body wall is regionalized into thoracic and lumbosacral/abdominal regions that differ in their morphology and developmental origin. The thoracic body wall has ribs and intercostal muscles, which develops from thoracic somites, whereas the abdominal wall has abdominal muscles, which develops from lumbosacral somites without ribs cage. To examine whether limb-genesis interferes wit...
متن کاملPerforator Flaps for Reconstruction of Lower Limb Defects
BACKGROUND Reconstruction of soft tissue defects in the lower third of the leg remains challenging. Anatomical constraints limit the local options available for complex defects especially lower third of leg. Local flaps based on perforator vessels are raising interest in reconstructive surgery of the limbs. We present our experience with perforator flaps for reconstruction of soft tissue def...
