We report a case of gastroschisis which was not diagnosed antenatally and was delivered through lower segment caesarean section due to non-reassuring cardiotocograph and small for gestational age fetus in a 21-year old mother. It was associated with oligohydramnios and partial extension of wrist joint in the neonate. After delivery, baby was referred to tertiary care for specialized care by paediatric surgeon and neonatologist where he had silo reduction and surgical repair. Postnatally, the baby is in healthy condition till now.

Hiatal Hernia01:25

Hiatal Hernia

A hiatal hernia is the abnormal protrusion of the stomach or other abdominal organs through the esophageal hiatus of the diaphragm into the thoracic cavity.Normally, the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) lies below the diaphragm and is supported by the phrenoesophageal membrane, the diaphragmatic crura, and connective tissues. Weakening of these structures—due to aging, congenital defects like a short esophagus, or increased intra-abdominal pressure from coughing, obesity, pregnancy, or heavy...
Gastrulation01:56

Gastrulation

Gastrulation establishes the three primary tissues of an embryo: the ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. This developmental process relies on a series of intricate cellular movements, which in humans transforms a flat, “bilaminar disc” composed of two cell sheets into a three-tiered structure. In the resulting embryo, the endoderm serves as the bottom layer, and stacked directly above it is the intermediate mesoderm, and then the uppermost ectoderm. Respectively, these tissue strata will form...
