Omphalocele in Finland from 1993 to 2014: Trends, Prevalence, Mortality, and Associated Malformations—A Population-Based Study

Abstract

Omphalocele is a rare congenital anomaly, often associated with other malformations. Our data suggest that isolated cases may be more common than previously thought. In the absence of chromosomal defects, survival is reasonably good. Regardless, more than half of these pregnancies are often terminated.
