Although post-natal umbilical hernia is not uncommon, its congenital form is an uncommon phenomenon (incidence rate about 0.2%) with an excellent post-surgical prognosis. It is frequently misdiagnosed as a small omphalocele. Additionally, if it is undiagnosed at the time of birth, clamping the umbilical cord can cause iatrogenic atresia of the ileum. Hence, during a physical exam, it is mandatory to look carefully for any skin folds in the form of a collar or defects in the umbilical ring or abdominal wall to avoid misdiagnosis. We report a full-term male newborn present with umbilical cord hernia, who underwent successful open surgery, with extra focus on the management and outcome of this disease.Keywords: abdominal wall, congenital abnormalities, omphalocele, umbilical cord hernia |
