    Ten patients (5 males and 5 females) with gastroschisis were treated in Alor Setar Hospital from January 1989 to December 1993. Two patients had associated congenital anomalies. Primary closure was possible in 9 patient while the other patient had stage closure. All patients received prophylactic antibiotics, 9 patients were ventilated electively in the post-operative period and 7 patients received parenteral nutrition. There were 9 survivors. Complications especially wound infection and breakdown were seen in 7 patients. The average hospital stay was 36 days.

    Focal eventration involving the posterior segment of the
    hemidiaphragm is a rare congenital anomaly. We report of a 10-
    day-old infant who presented with significant respiratory
    insufficiency and failure to show any responses to standard
    treatment. The diagnosis of focal eventration of the diaphragm
    was not anticipated until ultrasonographic examination revealed
    the defect. Diaphragmatic plication resulted in complete
    resolution of symptoms. A high level clinical awareness is
    crucial as a relatively simple surgical procedure could avert long
    term life-threatening complications.

    Eventration of the diaphragm is caused by weakened musculature of the diaphragm. This can occur in one or
    both hemidiaphragms. Symptoms may be minimal and it is usually detected incidentally on chest radiograph
    which would show an elevation of the diaphragm. We report and discuss a case of eventration of right
    diaphragm in a patient presented with a lobulated lung mass on chest radiograph.

    Gastroschisis is often found together with other extra intestinal conditions such as limb, spine, cardiac, central nervous system and genitourinary abnormalities. There are reports of its association with young maternal age. The cases presented here highlight the association of gastroschisis with limbs anomalies and young maternal age.

    The aim of this study was to engineer skeletal muscle tissue for repair abdominal wall defects. Myoblast were seeded onto the scaffolds and cultivated in vitro for 5 days. Full thickness abdominal wall defects (3 x 4 cm) were created in 18 male New Zealand white rabbits and randomly divided into two equal groups. The defects of the first group were repaired with myoblast-seeded-bovine tunica vaginalis whereas the second group repaired with non-seeded-bovine tunica vaginalis and function as a control. Three animals were sacrificed at 7th, 14th, and 30th days of post-implantation from each group and the explanted specimens were subjected to macroscopic and microscopic analysis. In every case, seeded scaffolds have better deposition of newly formed collagen with neo-vascularisation than control group. Interestingly, multinucleated myotubes and myofibers were only detected in cell-seeded group. This study demonstrated that myoblast-seeded-bovine tunica vaginalis can be used as an effective scaffold to repair severe and large abdominal wall defects with regeneration of skeletal muscle tissue.
