Question:

Is a term derived from the Greek word for "stomach cleft" or "fissure", is a condition similar to an omphalocele... (a protrusion [herniation] of abdominal contents through the abdominal wall at the point of the junction of the umbilical cord and abdomen) ..., except the abdominal wall disorder is a distance from the umbilicus, usually to the right, and abdominal organs are not contained by a membrane but rather spill freely from the abdominal wall. Is a full-thickness defect of the anterior abdominal wall of the fetus, which results in extrusion of abdominal viscera (usually intestines) into the amniotic space, without amniotic membrane coverage.
