Abstract EN

Urachal anomalies are rare affections due to incomplete closure of urachus during foetal period.

Colo-urachal-cutaneous fistula is an uncommon complication of urachal anomalies.

Only three cases have been reported so far in the literature.

Herein, we report a new case in a 51-year-old patient presenting with umbilical feculent discharge lasting for 4 weeks.

Diagnosis was made by computed tomography.

After en bloc total surgical excision followup was uneventful.
