Congenital Patent Urachus

Abstract
|
|
|
The allantois is a primitive excretory organ in the early fetal life. Normally the allantois is obliterated and represented by a fibrous cord. The urachus passes from the uppermost portion of the bladder to the umbilicus and is formed by a condensation and fibrosis of the allantois.
The patent urachus results from failure of luminal closure of the urachus. Herein a case of congenital patent urachus is reported.
