An omphalocele is in the midline, the sac contains multiple abd.organs(true hernia sac) and the umbilical ring is absent, may have other anomalies, which is common.
Gastroschesis is to the right of the midline,only small bowel is exposed (no true hernia sac), the umbilical ring is present and other anomalies are rare.
