The results of operative treatment of gastroschisis have been improving in recent years. The survival rate is now between 50 and 60 p.c. It is very important to perform primary repair as soon as possible after birth. According to our own experiences resection of the bowel should be avoided as it gives a poor prognosis. Combined malformations of gastroschisis are very rare and their treatment should be tired since there is no other alternative. An own successfully treated case of combined malformations of gastroschisis with atresia of the small bowel is presented. Stenosis of the duodenum and tubular duplication are described
