Gastroschisis is a congenital defect of the anterior abdominal wall in which the intestines and other abdominal organs, protrude from the abdomen through a small hole. In recent years rates of Gastroschisis have been increasing. Most of cases it is an isolated defect or associated with other anomalies. Ultrasonography can detect it within 14 weeks after physiological herniation. Gastroschisis and omphalocele are two defect that closely resemble each other. In this case, we discuss a newborn baby with gastroschisis being successfully managed and was discharged in healthy condition 21days later.
