BACKGROUND
The aesthetic and natural appearance of the transposed umbilicus after abdominoplasty is a key factor to the overall result and satisfaction of patient and surgeon alike. In this article, the authors present a technique in umbilical transposition that creates a natural-appearing
Preservation of the umbilical cord attachment (UCA) in gastroschisis (GS) is still not routine practice. In a prospective series of 36 children with GS, it was always possible to preserve the UCA, even in those undergoing a temporary silo and delayed closure. Reconstruction by 'umbilical cord
The author proposes a simple technique for umbilical reconstruction. The new umbilicus is represented by an island flap that is sunken and then sutured to a circular skin defect drawn at the intersection of the xiphoid-pubic line and the transverse umbilical line. Before sinking, an accurate
OBJECTIVE
The umbilicus is an essential esthetic landmark on the abdominal wall in women and men. There are only few models published for predicting exact localization of the umbilicus. The aim of our study was to develop a mathematical model for predicting correct umbilical positioning in a sample
OBJECTIVE
The umbilicus plays an important role in the aesthetic appearance of the abdomen. So, its restoration during reconstructive surgeries, such as an abdominoplasty, is a challenge. The aim of this study was to evaluate quantitative indices based on constant skeletal points in the anterior

The umbilicus is essential to the aesthetic appearance of the abdomen. However, very little has been written about the exact location of the aesthetically pleasing umbilicus as far as the Indian cosmopolitan population is concerned. Although a variety of reconstructive methods are
BACKGROUND
Recent reports on laparoscopic surgery for urachal anomalies have not described any techniques to restore the natural appearance of the umbilicus. In this report, we present a simple technique that enables complete resection of urachal anomalies while preserving the natural appearance of
The traditional surgical approach for removing a symptomatic urachal remnant is via a lower midline laparotomy and infraumbilical incision or a laparoscopic approach with umbilicoplasty. We reviewed our experience with umbilicus-sparing laparoscopic urachal remnant excision in a single-center study
The umbilicus, a natural orifice, which is used as an access port during laparoscopic surgery, can be used as a stoma site with potential superior cosmetic results as one less incision is then required. Our objective was to assess the efficacy and safety of the umbilical stoma in a selected group of
BACKGROUND
Liposuction is one of the most widely performed aesthetic surgeries. It is mainly used for the correction of deep and superficial fat accumulations and remodeling of the body contour.
METHODS
We present a rare case of unusual rubber foreign body found within the periumbilical area during
Reconstruction of the navel after tumour excision with subsequent navel resection is of great aesthetic importance for the patient. Methods of navel reconstruction are found in the literature but do not provide an elegant solution to the problem. Our method permits reconstruction of the navel during
The absence of the umbilicus is, in essence, an aesthetic deformity of the abdominal wall. The goal of reconstructing the umbilicus is to obtain a natural, three-dimensional appearance. In this study, we present a new technique called the "dome procedure" for the reconstruction of the
