Baby born with organs outside the body undergoes Sucessful surgery

A tiny Texas baby born with some organs on the outside of his body is recovering at a hospital after having surgery to correct the rare condition, his parents told ABC News. Little Hayes Davis was born in Houston on March 25 with a rare defect known as omphalocele, in which a fetus’ intestines and other organs develop in a thin sack outside a baby’s belly. Mom Kelly Davis told ABC that doctors told her about the condition, which afflicts one of every 10,000 babies, during an ultrasound about three months into her pregnancy.
“Once we heard the word ‘omphalocele,’ it was our world,” the 29-year-old Texan said. Her doctors at Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital said baby Hayes was lucky because he didn’t have a heart defect or other problems commonly associated with omphalocele. But the organ bulge was bigger than most, and baby Hayes was too tiny to operate on right away, doctors said. After being shown how to care for the condition, Kelly and husband Cody were able to bring the newborn home, while doctors hoped the boy would grow to develop enough tissue to cover the organs during a procedure. Traditionally, the condition requires several operations to tighten up the abdomen and bring the edges of the skin fully together, but Tsao believed the component separation was possible for Hayes because the doctors had waited several months for him to grow and develop more skin and tissue to work with in covering the organs. finally, the surgery came to be the sucess for the medical team.On Tuesday night, Kelly wrote that doctors had managed to fix the problem and Hayes was breathing okay, though the “lung is still pretty junky.”
