Embryologically, the allantois connects the urogenital sinus with the navel. Normally, the allantois is oblitered before the birth and is represented by a fibrous cord, called urachus, extending from the dome of the bladder to the navel. Urachal formation is directly related to bladder descent.
The urachus is a fibrous cord that arises from the anterior bladder wall and extends cranially to the umbilicus. Traditionally, infection has been treated using a two-stage procedure that includes an initial incision and drainage which is then followed by elective excision. More recently, it has
Disorders of urachal remnants are uncommon. While a urachal cyst usually is asymptomatic, infection may mimic a variety of acute intra-abdominal or pelvic processes. We describe 10 patients in 2 distinct age groups (the young child and the young adult) with an infected urachal cyst. The presenting
