G Stringel. J Pediatr Surg. 1993 May.

Abstract

The author reports four newborns with large gastroschisis, in whom primary fascial closure could not be accomplished. They were successfully treated by primary repair with Gore-Tex patch. Gore-Tex patch closure is a safe and good alternative in large abdominal wall defects when primary fascial repair is not feasible.
