Abstract

Gastroschisis has been defined as a malformation of the abdominal wall that classically presents as a visceral herniation with the presence of an intact umbilical cord and absence of a membrane covering the abdominal content. Its exact etiology is unknown; however, it is recognized that it presents a multifactorial inheritance pattern. Recently, an increase in the number of cases has been observed worldwide, particularly in Mexico, which is why some authors propose that


It is a silent pandemic that has not been monitored. The understanding of the etiological factors of this pathology can help to understand a little more the factors to which we are predisposed in our environment.
