Abstract

Exomphalos, also known as omphalocele is a midline defect, in which abdominal contents are covered with peritoneal membrane and herniated into the umbilical cord. It is commonly associated with other developmental anomalies. In this case report we illustrate a case of an omphalocele in a neonate associated with Meckel’s diverticulum, which is a rare occurrence. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of Meckel’s diverticulum in an exomphalos in Pakistan
