Unique Presentation of Urachal Cyst Disease : Incidental Finding to Complicated Infection

Abstract EN

Urachal remnant disease is uncommon in adults and can present with symptoms ranging from drainage near the umbilicus to a severe abdominal infection.

Most cases are referred for treatment once diagnosed either clinically or radiographically with ultrasound or computerized tomography.

We present a unique case of an infected urachal cyst visualized on a series of CT scans in an adult patient with abdominal pain over a period of years.
