Abstract

In this report, a patient with an interesting umbilical anomaly has been presented. There was a skin projection on the right side of the normal umbilical cord and a sac was extending from there. The sac contained some intestine and abdominal musculature was found normal. These findings revealed us to define the anomaly as "pregastroschisis".
