It occurs when a child's abdomen does not develop fully while in the womb.
Early in all pregnancies, the intestine develops inside the umbilical cord and then usually moves inside the abdomen a few weeks later. In gastroschisis, the abdominal wall does not form completely so the intestines develop outside and are open to the air when the child is born.
Gastroschisis is immediately recognisable because the child's intestines are outside of the abdomen. Some areas of the intestines may look darker as they have been in contact with the amniotic fluid inside the womb, which can damage them.
