Gastroshiza: You Need to know it’s Mean?

In our time when the language is changing fast and new words appear in all spheres not only in medicine and technology but in popular culture as well, the following interesting word deserves attention: Gastroshiza. It might not even appear at the authoritative sources of a traditional dictionary or medical literature but on the other hand, the design and the form of it already suggests a certain something that has a potentially biological, clinical, or even a speculative meaning.

Okay, what is Gastroshiza? What are its roots, implications, or applications? What does it mean? Where did it come from? What is the point? Well, let us find out, medical student or not, science fiction writer or just thinking student of strange terminology.

The meaning and origin of the term gastroshiza are possible.

In order to crack the term we can divide it:

• There is a prefix gastro- which is a Latin translation to the Greek gastēr which translates to stomach or abdomen.
