An Antenatal Diagnostic of Laparoschisis: Case Report

Abstract

The laparoschisis is a parietal anomaly that is part of the meteoric coelosomies. It is characterized by an enlargement of the right lateral-umbilical level of the viscera. Its frequency is estimated at 1 in 2700 births and its final prognosis is excellent, depending on the ischemic lesions, for which therapeutic management is often limited. No genetic cause is currently incriminated in the genetics of laparoschisis apart from its association with syndromic groups. The diagnosis is suspected prenatally allowing a better therapeutic approach. Its management is essentially surgical in the absence of irreversible ischemic lesions. Here we illustrate the case of a young couple in whom the antenatal diagnosis highlighted the antenatal diagnosis of laparoschisis at 35 SA .in which the cesarean section allowed the extraction of a newborn male with a good Apgar and who immediately underwent an operation to reintegrate the viscera and to close the abdominal defect by the pediatric surgeons. The baby is doing well without any complications; good psychomotor development with a follow-up of 1 year.
