Abstract
Scenario: A newborn female is transferred emergently to your hospital with the intestine and liver exposed and lying outside the abdominal cavity. The anomaly seems to be centred in the umbilical region. A thin membrane sac is seen covering the exposed intestines with the umbilical cord emanating from it (Figure 6.1).
