The experiences of treatment of 91 infants with abdominal wall defects during thirty years are presented. The occurrence of gastroschisis increased during the last ten years. The results of treatment have improved markedly during the period of study but there is still a high mortality rate in children with omphalocele and multiple concomitant malformations and in children with gastroschisis and coexisting intestinal atresia. In cases with large omphalocele defects, if primary closure is not possible, an implant is recommended instead of silastic silo, skin flap closure or mercurochrome application. The clinical course in thirty-six patients during the last ten years is reported.
