Umbilical Hernia

It is common at birth, as it is the point where the umbilical cord and its vascular components are connected to the placenta. After birth, it normally heals and suffers an involution, but it can leave a defect sometimes as big a 2 cms. in diameter. It is usually benign and resolves spontaneously in the first two years of life.

It is more common in females and in some human groups, but if it doesn´t close at 2 years of age, it requires surgical correction.

It is done as a day case, with a short general anesthesia.
