Abstract
Omphalocele is an abdominal wall defect at the midline characterized by herniation of abdominal contents and covered by peritoneum and amnion. The diagnosis of this entity is performed after week 12, requiring periodic ultrasound monitoring and detailed anatomical study because of its possible association with other malformations. Prognosis is generally good. We describe a typical case of fetal omphalocele, diagnosed in our region.
