Gastroschisis: immediate reduction by bianchi procedure at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, Eldoret: case report.

This is a report of the only case of gastroschisis that has survived at the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital in the past five years. Others, who have been referred to this hospital arriving occasionally without the necessary care for this problem in place, have not even managed to survive through the period of resuscitation. The objective of this report is to show that these children can survive. Immediate post-natal care for protruded abdominal organs, fluid resuscitation and adherence to the principles of neonatal transport are essential.
