Exomphalos major suspension: a novel technique.

Abstract
A 38-week gestation female neonate with an antenatally diagnosed exomphalos major was born with respiratory insufficiency requiring initially high frequency oscillation, nitric oxide and inotropic support. The exomphalos was vertically stabilized by means of a novel technique prior to the application of a silo and formal closure. The technique is described and compared with others.
