Gastroschisis

Gastroschisis is marked by viscera protruding, without a covering sac, from the fetal abdomen on the right lateral base of the umbilicus. It is due to defective embryo growth and other malformations are only exceptionally associated.

Meromelia

Partial absence of a free limb (excluding girdle). It can refer to the proximal, middle or distal segment of the upper or lower limb. The deficiency may be transverse or longitudinal. Thus, meromelia is a lack of a part, but not all, of one or more limbs with the presence of a hand or foot.
