Abnormal intestinal motility in gastroschisis.

K S Oh, J P Dorst, R Dominguez

    Radiology
    |May 1, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary

    Children with gastroschisis often exhibit abnormal intestinal motility, specifically very slow transit times. These infants may also present with malrotation and bowel loop dilatation or fixation.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Gastroenterology
    • Developmental Biology

    Background:

    • Gastroschisis is a congenital defect where intestines develop outside the body.
    • Intestinal motility is crucial for proper digestion and nutrient absorption.
    • Understanding motility in gastroschisis is key to improving surgical outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate intestinal motility in children with gastroschisis.
    • To identify associated gastrointestinal abnormalities in this patient population.

    Main Methods:

    • Case series describing clinical observations.
    • Assessment of intestinal transit time.
    • Radiographic evaluation for anatomical abnormalities.

    Main Results:

    • Eight children with gastroschisis were studied.
    • Abnormal intestinal motility characterized by very slow transit time was observed.
    • Associated findings included malrotation, dilatation, and fixation of bowel loops.

    Conclusions:

    • Children with gastroschisis frequently have impaired intestinal motility.
    • Slow transit time and anatomical abnormalities may contribute to feeding difficulties and complications.
    • Further research into motility disorders in gastroschisis is warranted.
