  • Title: [Dermoid cyst of the urachus: a case report and review of the literature].
    Author: Agbreta N, Boutens A, Debodinance P.
    Journal: J Gynecol Obstet Biol Reprod (Paris); 2006 Feb; 35(1):75-8. PubMed ID: 16446615.
    Abstract:
    The urachus, a normal embryonic remnant of the primitive bladder dome, exists as a fibrous cord in adult. Urachal disorders are not exceptional, and are expression of incomplete regression. Diagnosis is generally ultrasonographic, rarely clinical. We report a case of urachal dermoid cyst revealed by abdominal pain and underline the diagnostic difficulties related to this unusual localization.
