Case
This is the case of a 2-year-old female who presented with a 2-week history of intermittent nonbilious vomiting and diffuse abdominal pain. She had a history of gastroschisis repair as a neonate which involved an initial surgical reduction shortly after birth, returning as much bowel as possible. The remaining eviscerated bowel was placed in a silo for 5 days, after which the wound site and wall defect were surgically closed.
